About

At Chin Legal Group, our primary concern is YOU, the client. We understand that taking on representation is never an easy decision and is often a last resort. If you could do it yourself you would. However, the added value in our representation is knowing that you have someone in your corner and watching out for you at every turn. We offer effective, professional, and personal representation to our clients and place our clients as our highest priority. Without you we would not be able to practice law.

It's been a long drawn out almost 2 year battle with my ex wife. I don't even know where to begin! We hit it off great upon first introductions and I knew Michael was the right guy for me. I had a TOUGH case. I gave up my parental rights to my ex wife when I traveled for work, with good faith she'd return to original parenting plan upon my return. She did not. She decided to relocate out of state, and even though I was able to stop that I felt lucky I was able to do so. When she retaliated to file for more child support I hired Michael Chin. We spent the next 2 years dealing with a woman that would not comply with court and still get a slap on the wrist and allowed to pursue til the end. She was non-communicative with either one of us. She was always up and down on her decisions. There was no other way to get through to her than to build a case and get a GAL and during that time she filed AGAIN to relocate. Long story short, my daughters stayed in Washington and are now going to be residing with me. I have my daughters back, thanks to Michael. If you want a man that will fight through some of the toughest challenges, and stick by your side all the way through, this is your guy. I am pretty sure I have the LARGEST file in his office and he went through everything to ensure we had what we needed to win this case. Thank you Michael, Thank you.

Michael went above and beyond for me. I had a very long court and custody battle of almost 2 years. Michael never gave up on me and did everything possible for my case and I was eventually awarded full custody of my daughter. He is honest , caring , and thorough. He is not a price gouger. He is extremely hard working and good at what he does. He was amazing in trial and thought of everything . You can not go wrong with Michael and you will be in very good hands . He is extremely competent and reliable. I highly recommend him and couldn’t thank him enough for everything he’s done for me and my family.

Michael saw me through an 18-month custody case. I came to him feeling very defeated, as my ex was keeping my son from me. My ex had more money than me, which he threatened all the time, and that left me in fear for a long time. Finally, I had enough and began reaching out to Attorneys as I knew I needed representation. Michael called me back directly. From the first call with Michael, he listened to my story. He was thoughtful and compassionate and invited me in for a consultation. I hired Michael that day. He became my rock. I trusted him; I trusted his strategy in a time in which I was not very trusting. He was always responsive and communicated clearly so that I understood the process, and most of all, he was always honest with me. He guided me through a process I could have NEVER navigated alone. He’s extremely knowledgeable, but the best part about Michael is he told my story and defended me better than I ever could have. He fought for me. If you’re looking for honest representation who will not only fight for you but fight with you, hire Michael Chin. The team at Chin Legal Group is also amazing. I always received a response within 24 hours, which is almost unheard of today with Attorneys. There are no words to express how grateful I am to Michael for what he has done for me. Thank you, Michael!

I went through a very difficult and toxic divorce. I was so scared I would loose my son. Michael counseled me and represented me very well and the result was that I was granted full custody of my son and child support. I am satisfied and it was the best money I ever spent.

After doing a lot of research for a family attorney, my wife and I came across Michael Chin on Avvo. We had an initial consultation with him and laid out what we were up against with child support and parenting plans. After the consultation my wife and I felt good about what Michael laid out as realistic expectations (which I can appreciate). Michael and his team throughout the entire process were diligent, timely, communicative, and thorough and went above and beyond our expectations. As difficult as child support and parenting plans can be, he maintained a professional approach and set realistic expectations on what to expect. I would highly.....highly recommend Michael and his team to represent you!!!

I am so excited that I had the chance to work with Michael and his team. I went through a divorce last year and I did not know what to expect. Michael and his team made the entire process smooth and flawless. They are very professional and kept me updated every step of the way. I thought that the process would drag out, but it didn't. I only was held for the mandatory waiting period. I will recommend Michael to anyone for any of their family related legal issues.

My girlfriend and i hired Michael to represent us to gain custody of my girlfriends daughter in order to move for my job. Michael listened to all our concerns and got us everything we asked for! Was a pleasure to work with him and his team from start to finish! Would highly recommend to anyone! Great experience!

I needed a lawyer for a custody/visitation battle with my son’s mother and found Michael on the AVVO website. After a quick consultation, I hired him and it was one of the BEST decisions I could’ve made. He knows his craft and knew exactly how to address my situation. He always explained things clearly and always responded to my text messages and phone calls. He makes you feel like he is YOUR lawyer and you’re not just another client. He helped me through mediation to the point where my ex’s lawyer dropped from the case. Michael is great and I’m very happy with his (and his team’s) services.

Michael and his staff were impressive from start to finish. First of all, I immediately felt more connected with Michael when he wasn’t trying to charge me just to hear why I was seeking an attorney. As a father in a custody case you automatically feel like you’re having more to prove climbing an uphill battle. Once I explained my situation and what I was fighting against and for, Michael and his staff seemed to have a personal stake in my case. They never made me feel like I was just another case, but truly in the best interest of my child. At no point in time did I ever feel like they were in it just for the paycheck. They were very open and honest on our proceedings, chances, options, and suggestions on how continue forward. Michael’s open and honest discussions kept me informed while building a trust that had me feeling confident every step of the way. His staff were especially helpful with every question I had, answering me often and frequently. Their positive communication to ensure every detail of our case was accurately filed and accounted for gave me a peace of mind that cannot be overstated. In the end we came out on top and my child is remaining in my custody. I am forever thankful for Michael and his staff.

I contacted Michael Chin for help with relocating with my daughter within Washington State. I have already been through a difficult divorce, which I did alone through DV issues. For this new case to move, I wanted to take the stress of court and filing out. Michael Chin and his team were exactly what I needed. He assesed my situation and provided a reasonable price for his services. I particularly like that when consulting with him directly, he had clarity and experience in his response. Helping me to make well informed decisions and less emotionally based ones. His staff has been courteous and responded quickly. Any questions I had or changes that were needed, were corrected immediately. My final result has been a stress free court experience. Without any escalation and resolved ontime for me to move with my daughter. Michael Chin and his staff are worth the time and money, and I would recommend them to anyone who was looking for assistance with family related court issues.

We spent the next 2 years dealing with a woman that would not comply with court and still get a slap on the wrist and allowed to pursue til the end. She was non-communicative with either one of us. She was always up and down on her decisions. There was no other way to get through to her than to build a case and get a GAL and during that time she filed AGAIN to relocate. Long story short, my daughters stayed in Washington and are now going to be residing with me. I have my daughters back, thanks to Michael. If you want a man that will fight through some of the toughest challenges, and stick by your side all the way through, this is your guy. I am pretty sure I have the LARGEST file in his office and he went through everything to ensure we had what we needed to win this case. Thank you Michael, Thank you.

Michael went above and beyond for me. I had a very long court and custody battle of almost 2 years. Michael never gave up on me and did everything possible for my case and I was eventually awarded full custody of my daughter. He is honest , caring , and thorough. He is not a price gouger. He is extremely hard working and good at what he does. He was amazing in trial and thought of everything . You can not go wrong with Michael and you will be in very good hands . He is extremely competent and reliable. I highly recommend him and couldn’t thank him enough for everything he’s done for me and my family.

Michael saw me through an 18-month custody case. I came to him feeling very defeated, as my ex was keeping my son from me. My ex had more money than me, which he threatened all the time, and that left me in fear for a long time. Finally, I had enough and began reaching out to Attorneys as I knew I needed representation. Michael called me back directly. From the first call with Michael, he listened to my story. He was thoughtful and compassionate and invited me in for a consultation. I hired Michael that day. He became my rock. I trusted him; I trusted his strategy in a time in which I was not very trusting. He was always responsive and communicated clearly so that I understood the process, and most of all, he was always honest with me. He guided me through a process I could have NEVER navigated alone. He’s extremely knowledgeable, but the best part about Michael is he told my story and defended me better than I ever could have. He fought for me. If you’re looking for honest representation who will not only fight for you but fight with you, hire Michael Chin. The team at Chin Legal Group is also amazing. I always received a response within 24 hours, which is almost unheard of today with Attorneys. There are no words to express how grateful I am to Michael for what he has done for me. Thank you, Michael!

I went through a very difficult and toxic divorce. I was so scared I would loose my son. Michael counseled me and represented me very well and the result was that I was granted full custody of my son and child support. I am satisfied and it was the best money I ever spent.

After doing a lot of research for a family attorney, my wife and I came across Michael Chin on Avvo. We had an initial consultation with him and laid out what we were up against with child support and parenting plans. After the consultation my wife and I felt good about what Michael laid out as realistic expectations (which I can appreciate). Michael and his team throughout the entire process were diligent, timely, communicative, and thorough and went above and beyond our expectations. As difficult as child support and parenting plans can be, he maintained a professional approach and set realistic expectations on what to expect. I would highly.....highly recommend Michael and his team to represent you!!!

I am so excited that I had the chance to work with Michael and his team. I went through a divorce last year and I did not know what to expect. Michael and his team made the entire process smooth and flawless. They are very professional and kept me updated every step of the way. I thought that the process would drag out, but it didn't. I only was held for the mandatory waiting period. I will recommend Michael to anyone for any of their family related legal issues.

My girlfriend and i hired Michael to represent us to gain custody of my girlfriends daughter in order to move for my job. Michael listened to all our concerns and got us everything we asked for! Was a pleasure to work with him and his team from start to finish! Would highly recommend to anyone! Great experience!

I needed a lawyer for a custody/visitation battle with my son’s mother and found Michael on the AVVO website. After a quick consultation, I hired him and it was one of the BEST decisions I could’ve made. He knows his craft and knew exactly how to address my situation. He always explained things clearly and always responded to my text messages and phone calls. He makes you feel like he is YOUR lawyer and you’re not just another client. He helped me through mediation to the point where my ex’s lawyer dropped from the case. Michael is great and I’m very happy with his (and his team’s) services.

Michael and his staff were impressive from start to finish. First of all, I immediately felt more connected with Michael when he wasn’t trying to charge me just to hear why I was seeking an attorney. As a father in a custody case you automatically feel like you’re having more to prove climbing an uphill battle. Once I explained my situation and what I was fighting against and for, Michael and his staff seemed to have a personal stake in my case. They never made me feel like I was just another case, but truly in the best interest of my child. At no point in time did I ever feel like they were in it just for the paycheck. They were very open and honest on our proceedings, chances, options, and suggestions on how continue forward. Michael’s open and honest discussions kept me informed while building a trust that had me feeling confident every step of the way. His staff were especially helpful with every question I had, answering me often and frequently. Their positive communication to ensure every detail of our case was accurately filed and accounted for gave me a peace of mind that cannot be overstated. In the end we came out on top and my child is remaining in my custody. I am forever thankful for Michael and his staff.

I contacted Michael Chin for help with relocating with my daughter within Washington State. I have already been through a difficult divorce, which I did alone through DV issues. For this new case to move, I wanted to take the stress of court and filing out. Michael Chin and his team were exactly what I needed. He assesed my situation and provided a reasonable price for his services. I particularly like that when consulting with him directly, he had clarity and experience in his response. Helping me to make well informed decisions and less emotionally based ones. His staff has been courteous and responded quickly. Any questions I had or changes that were needed, were corrected immediately. My final result has been a stress free court experience. Without any escalation and resolved ontime for me to move with my daughter. Michael Chin and his staff are worth the time and money, and I would recommend them to anyone who was looking for assistance with family related court issues.

Michael called me back directly. From the first call with Michael, he listened to my story. He was thoughtful and compassionate and invited me in for a consultation. I hired Michael that day. He became my rock. I trusted him; I trusted his strategy in a time in which I was not very trusting. He was always responsive and communicated clearly so that I understood the process, and most of all, he was always honest with me. He guided me through a process I could have NEVER navigated alone. He’s extremely knowledgeable, but the best part about Michael is he told my story and defended me better than I ever could have. He fought for me. If you’re looking for honest representation who will not only fight for you but fight with you, hire Michael Chin. The team at Chin Legal Group is also amazing. I always received a response within 24 hours, which is almost unheard of today with Attorneys. There are no words to express how grateful I am to Michael for what he has done for me. Thank you, Michael!

I went through a very difficult and toxic divorce. I was so scared I would loose my son. Michael counseled me and represented me very well and the result was that I was granted full custody of my son and child support. I am satisfied and it was the best money I ever spent.

After doing a lot of research for a family attorney, my wife and I came across Michael Chin on Avvo. We had an initial consultation with him and laid out what we were up against with child support and parenting plans. After the consultation my wife and I felt good about what Michael laid out as realistic expectations (which I can appreciate). Michael and his team throughout the entire process were diligent, timely, communicative, and thorough and went above and beyond our expectations. As difficult as child support and parenting plans can be, he maintained a professional approach and set realistic expectations on what to expect. I would highly.....highly recommend Michael and his team to represent you!!!

I am so excited that I had the chance to work with Michael and his team. I went through a divorce last year and I did not know what to expect. Michael and his team made the entire process smooth and flawless. They are very professional and kept me updated every step of the way. I thought that the process would drag out, but it didn't. I only was held for the mandatory waiting period. I will recommend Michael to anyone for any of their family related legal issues.

My girlfriend and i hired Michael to represent us to gain custody of my girlfriends daughter in order to move for my job. Michael listened to all our concerns and got us everything we asked for! Was a pleasure to work with him and his team from start to finish! Would highly recommend to anyone! Great experience!

I needed a lawyer for a custody/visitation battle with my son’s mother and found Michael on the AVVO website. After a quick consultation, I hired him and it was one of the BEST decisions I could’ve made. He knows his craft and knew exactly how to address my situation. He always explained things clearly and always responded to my text messages and phone calls. He makes you feel like he is YOUR lawyer and you’re not just another client. He helped me through mediation to the point where my ex’s lawyer dropped from the case. Michael is great and I’m very happy with his (and his team’s) services.

Michael and his staff were impressive from start to finish. First of all, I immediately felt more connected with Michael when he wasn’t trying to charge me just to hear why I was seeking an attorney. As a father in a custody case you automatically feel like you’re having more to prove climbing an uphill battle. Once I explained my situation and what I was fighting against and for, Michael and his staff seemed to have a personal stake in my case. They never made me feel like I was just another case, but truly in the best interest of my child. At no point in time did I ever feel like they were in it just for the paycheck. They were very open and honest on our proceedings, chances, options, and suggestions on how continue forward. Michael’s open and honest discussions kept me informed while building a trust that had me feeling confident every step of the way. His staff were especially helpful with every question I had, answering me often and frequently. Their positive communication to ensure every detail of our case was accurately filed and accounted for gave me a peace of mind that cannot be overstated. In the end we came out on top and my child is remaining in my custody. I am forever thankful for Michael and his staff.

I contacted Michael Chin for help with relocating with my daughter within Washington State. I have already been through a difficult divorce, which I did alone through DV issues. For this new case to move, I wanted to take the stress of court and filing out. Michael Chin and his team were exactly what I needed. He assesed my situation and provided a reasonable price for his services. I particularly like that when consulting with him directly, he had clarity and experience in his response. Helping me to make well informed decisions and less emotionally based ones. His staff has been courteous and responded quickly. Any questions I had or changes that were needed, were corrected immediately. My final result has been a stress free court experience. Without any escalation and resolved ontime for me to move with my daughter. Michael Chin and his staff are worth the time and money, and I would recommend them to anyone who was looking for assistance with family related court issues.

It's been a long drawn out almost 2 year battle with my ex wife. I don't even know where to begin! We hit it off great upon first introductions and I knew Michael was the right guy for me. I had a TOUGH case. I gave up my parental rights to my ex wife when I traveled for work, with good faith she'd return to original parenting plan upon my return. She did not. She decided to relocate out of state, and even though I was able to stop that I felt lucky I was able to do so. When she retaliated to file for more child support I hired Michael Chin. We spent the next 2 years dealing with a woman that would not comply with court and still get a slap on the wrist and allowed to pursue til the end. She was non-communicative with either one of us. She was always up and down on her decisions. There was no other way to get through to her than to build a case and get a GAL and during that time she filed AGAIN to relocate. Long story short, my daughters stayed in Washington and are now going to be residing with me. I have my daughters back, thanks to Michael. If you want a man that will fight through some of the toughest challenges, and stick by your side all the way through, this is your guy. I am pretty sure I have the LARGEST file in his office and he went through everything to ensure we had what we needed to win this case. Thank you Michael, Thank you.

Michael went above and beyond for me. I had a very long court and custody battle of almost 2 years. Michael never gave up on me and did everything possible for my case and I was eventually awarded full custody of my daughter. He is honest , caring , and thorough. He is not a price gouger. He is extremely hard working and good at what he does. He was amazing in trial and thought of everything . You can not go wrong with Michael and you will be in very good hands . He is extremely competent and reliable. I highly recommend him and couldn’t thank him enough for everything he’s done for me and my family.

I am so excited that I had the chance to work with Michael and his team. I went through a divorce last year and I did not know what to expect. Michael and his team made the entire process smooth and flawless. They are very professional and kept me updated every step of the way. I thought that the process would drag out, but it didn't. I only was held for the mandatory waiting period. I will recommend Michael to anyone for any of their family related legal issues.

My girlfriend and i hired Michael to represent us to gain custody of my girlfriends daughter in order to move for my job. Michael listened to all our concerns and got us everything we asked for! Was a pleasure to work with him and his team from start to finish! Would highly recommend to anyone! Great experience!

I needed a lawyer for a custody/visitation battle with my son’s mother and found Michael on the AVVO website. After a quick consultation, I hired him and it was one of the BEST decisions I could’ve made. He knows his craft and knew exactly how to address my situation. He always explained things clearly and always responded to my text messages and phone calls. He makes you feel like he is YOUR lawyer and you’re not just another client. He helped me through mediation to the point where my ex’s lawyer dropped from the case. Michael is great and I’m very happy with his (and his team’s) services.

Michael and his staff were impressive from start to finish. First of all, I immediately felt more connected with Michael when he wasn’t trying to charge me just to hear why I was seeking an attorney. As a father in a custody case you automatically feel like you’re having more to prove climbing an uphill battle. Once I explained my situation and what I was fighting against and for, Michael and his staff seemed to have a personal stake in my case. They never made me feel like I was just another case, but truly in the best interest of my child. At no point in time did I ever feel like they were in it just for the paycheck. They were very open and honest on our proceedings, chances, options, and suggestions on how continue forward. Michael’s open and honest discussions kept me informed while building a trust that had me feeling confident every step of the way. His staff were especially helpful with every question I had, answering me often and frequently. Their positive communication to ensure every detail of our case was accurately filed and accounted for gave me a peace of mind that cannot be overstated. In the end we came out on top and my child is remaining in my custody. I am forever thankful for Michael and his staff.

I contacted Michael Chin for help with relocating with my daughter within Washington State. I have already been through a difficult divorce, which I did alone through DV issues. For this new case to move, I wanted to take the stress of court and filing out. Michael Chin and his team were exactly what I needed. He assesed my situation and provided a reasonable price for his services. I particularly like that when consulting with him directly, he had clarity and experience in his response. Helping me to make well informed decisions and less emotionally based ones. His staff has been courteous and responded quickly. Any questions I had or changes that were needed, were corrected immediately. My final result has been a stress free court experience. Without any escalation and resolved ontime for me to move with my daughter. Michael Chin and his staff are worth the time and money, and I would recommend them to anyone who was looking for assistance with family related court issues.

It's been a long drawn out almost 2 year battle with my ex wife. I don't even know where to begin! We hit it off great upon first introductions and I knew Michael was the right guy for me. I had a TOUGH case. I gave up my parental rights to my ex wife when I traveled for work, with good faith she'd return to original parenting plan upon my return. She did not. She decided to relocate out of state, and even though I was able to stop that I felt lucky I was able to do so. When she retaliated to file for more child support I hired Michael Chin. We spent the next 2 years dealing with a woman that would not comply with court and still get a slap on the wrist and allowed to pursue til the end. She was non-communicative with either one of us. She was always up and down on her decisions. There was no other way to get through to her than to build a case and get a GAL and during that time she filed AGAIN to relocate. Long story short, my daughters stayed in Washington and are now going to be residing with me. I have my daughters back, thanks to Michael. If you want a man that will fight through some of the toughest challenges, and stick by your side all the way through, this is your guy. I am pretty sure I have the LARGEST file in his office and he went through everything to ensure we had what we needed to win this case. Thank you Michael, Thank you.

Michael went above and beyond for me. I had a very long court and custody battle of almost 2 years. Michael never gave up on me and did everything possible for my case and I was eventually awarded full custody of my daughter. He is honest , caring , and thorough. He is not a price gouger. He is extremely hard working and good at what he does. He was amazing in trial and thought of everything . You can not go wrong with Michael and you will be in very good hands . He is extremely competent and reliable. I highly recommend him and couldn’t thank him enough for everything he’s done for me and my family.

Michael saw me through an 18-month custody case. I came to him feeling very defeated, as my ex was keeping my son from me. My ex had more money than me, which he threatened all the time, and that left me in fear for a long time. Finally, I had enough and began reaching out to Attorneys as I knew I needed representation. Michael called me back directly. From the first call with Michael, he listened to my story. He was thoughtful and compassionate and invited me in for a consultation. I hired Michael that day. He became my rock. I trusted him; I trusted his strategy in a time in which I was not very trusting. He was always responsive and communicated clearly so that I understood the process, and most of all, he was always honest with me. He guided me through a process I could have NEVER navigated alone. He’s extremely knowledgeable, but the best part about Michael is he told my story and defended me better than I ever could have. He fought for me. If you’re looking for honest representation who will not only fight for you but fight with you, hire Michael Chin. The team at Chin Legal Group is also amazing. I always received a response within 24 hours, which is almost unheard of today with Attorneys. There are no words to express how grateful I am to Michael for what he has done for me. Thank you, Michael!

I went through a very difficult and toxic divorce. I was so scared I would loose my son. Michael counseled me and represented me very well and the result was that I was granted full custody of my son and child support. I am satisfied and it was the best money I ever spent.

After doing a lot of research for a family attorney, my wife and I came across Michael Chin on Avvo. We had an initial consultation with him and laid out what we were up against with child support and parenting plans. After the consultation my wife and I felt good about what Michael laid out as realistic expectations (which I can appreciate). Michael and his team throughout the entire process were diligent, timely, communicative, and thorough and went above and beyond our expectations. As difficult as child support and parenting plans can be, he maintained a professional approach and set realistic expectations on what to expect. I would highly.....highly recommend Michael and his team to represent you!!!
