It’s their case, and that is a fact we never forget.” “Our firm educates clients about the specific details and nuances of each case, including potential outcomes. We make sure their condition is properly assessed and treated, and we work with each client to evaluate the total ramifications of their loss, both financially and emotionally,” Kooi says. “No one can return to you what you’ve lost,” Kooi says. “But we believe you can move forward with the help of strong advice, aggressive representation and compassion. With these core values in mind, our law firm will give you and your loved ones peace of mind in knowing that you are taken care of.”
