Wendy W Chen

Wendy W. Chen successfully addressed long standing and unnecessary barriers with my access to public services. In every instance she met circumstances professionally and calmly, yet with firm instance for fair and equal access. Despite my medical disabilities and difficulty with communications, Ms. C...hen consistently offered me patience and realistic benchmarks for my own and everybody elses' expectations. Discrimination, disability and related laws are complex. Ms. Chen has helped me understand that feeling unjustly excluded is different than being unfairly excluded under the law. Thankfully, Ms. Chen admits candidly when an area is beyond her current knowledge. I cannot give her five stars for knowing everything. And, I did not see a category for, "Smart enough to know s/he does not know everything, but willing to learn or refer". Ms. Chen successfully facilitated collaboration between multiple local and federal agencies to increase understanding and fair access for me, and others like me, to basic public safety, housing, and communications services we all take for granted.

I found Wendy Chen after speaking with many large law firms in the Seattle area and with much relief. Wendy Chen is a true professional. She is knowledgable, friendly and most importantly honest. Wendy took the time to consult with me in regards to my employment issue and in the end managed to recove...r me a much needed monetary settlement from my former employer. If you are looking for someone who will help with any sized employment legal matter then Wendy Chen with the Public Interest Law Group is where you should go. I cannot thank her enough for her time and effort that she put into my case.

Wendy handled my wage and hour case and was completely responsive and attentive to all my needs throughout the entire process. I was always well informed of what was going on with my case and never felt out of the loop. My case came to a settlement that I was very pleased with largely due to Wendy'...s efforts. Before coming in contact with Wendy I was having a terrible finding a lawyer who would take my case, but Wendy was willing, able and ready and brought the case to a full conclusion. I recommend her without reservation and would not hesitate to work with her again.
