Kenneth M Chang's Lawyer Endorsements
"I was a colleague of Ken's for several years at The Defender Association and had the opportunity to work with him and watch him in action, once co-counseling a case where our client faced the possibility of life imprisonment. I learned a lot from him and watched him come up with ideas and strategies I wouldn't have thought of. His enthusiasm, creativity, and energy is unmatched. He is also a very generous and decent person. I recommend him without reservation."
"I have known Ken for many years as a friend and colleague. I trust his knowledge of the law and the legal system. Ken is a hard working, dedicated, and exceptionally skilled attorney. If I was ever in need of an attorney for personal injury, DUI/DWI, or criminal defense, Ken would be the first person I would contact without hesitation."
"I highly recommend Kenneth Chang. He is a dedicated, intelligent attorney."
"Ken Chang has all the attributes you want in a lawyer; smart, hard-working, and ethical. I had the privilege of working with Ken at our former law office. Even under the stress of deadlines or unexpected events, Ken stayed calm and got the job done. He has a self-deprecating sense of humor and treats everyone around him with respect and courtesy. I endorse Ken without reservation."
"I have worked with and for Ken Chang in a variety of contexts over many years. Ken is a caring and extremely prepared advocate for his clients. Ken strategically maps out all reasonable outcomes for his clients and leaves no stone unturned. He simply has no limitations as an attorney, and his opposing counsels are fully cognizant of this. I am honored to have worked with Ken when he was my supervisor and now as a law partner."
"Ken is a fantastic lawyer. He works hard, is very experienced, and he has won trials that I thought no lawyer could win."
