Chin & Orr Lawyers was founded in 1994 by Peter Chin and Susan Orr, who believed that for law to be fair, it had to be understood by their clients.
Relying on a friendship built on honesty, trust and integrity, Peter and Susan forged a partnership and called it Chin & Orr Lawyers. Over thirty years later, we continue to represent individuals, families, businesses and people from all walks of life — treating each client the way we would want to be treated.
Susan may have lost her battle to cancer, but her passion to serve the community and her work ethic forever remain with our firm.
