Hi! I’m Maggie W. Trinh, Esq. (she/her). I founded Next Chapter Legal because I saw a need for high-quality employment law advice for employees and employers in California that is also practical and financially accessible.

I grew up in the San Gabriel Valley, just east of downtown Los Angeles, but have lived in Northern California since 2004. I am proud to be a daughter of immigrants and a UC Berkeley/UC Davis SOL grad (Go Bears!).

Outside of my employment law practice, I enjoy baking 🍰, reading 🤓, VERY amateur gardening 🌱, and biking 🚴🏼‍♀️ around town. I live with my family (and a lot of houseplants🪴) in San Mateo.
