The Veen Firm

Theo Emison and his entire team were nothing but professional and caring in handling my medical malpractice case. Not only were our questions and concerns always answered in a timely and professional manner, Theo and his team treated the details of my case (and my injury) with the utmost respect and compassion while also providing excellent legal counsel. We cannot say enough about the phenomenal work and outcome we received as a result of hiring Theo and his team. We highly, highly recommend Theo!

Our experience with Theo Emison of Veen Firm Trial Law, was nothing short of outstanding. Theo handled our case with maximum professionalism, empathy and care. It was an emotionally exhausting case with too many complexities, but Theo’s grasp of detail, his strategic thinking and his ability to plan ahead helped us achieve a favorable outcome. Theo was very straight forward about the possible outcomes, took the time to explain all the documents and was very patient with our numerous questions. Above all the professional services, his ability to personally connect to each member of our family has been priceless. We are profoundly grateful for his services and highly recommend Theo for cases involving personal injury, wrongful death and medical malpractice.

Ok so I never really write reviews, and definitely not long ones, but I’ve told this story to like 20 people in real life so I might as well put it here. Couple years ago I got hurt on a construction job. I’m not going to put all the details here, but it was bad enough that I couldn’t work, couldn’t sleep right, and needed help to do stuff that used to be no big deal. You go from “I’m fine, I got it” to “how do I even get through the week.” I talked to a few lawyers before Veen. One told me basically, “This is going to be very hard, I don’t think it’s worth it.” Another just kind of shrugged and said the case was too complicated, lots of moving parts, blah blah. I walked out of those calls feeling like the accident was my fault for being inconvenient. Someone I know from the neighborhood said, “Call The Veen Firm, they do the tough ones,” so I did. First call was already different. They actually let me talk. I could tell they were taking notes, asking follow up questions, not just waiting for me to stop so they could give some generic answer. They asked how it changed my day, not just what the medical report said. Like, can you pick up groceries, can you climb stairs, can you focus, how is your family handling it. Stuff that felt very real. Once they took the case, they didn’t disappear. They explained what was going on in normal words, not legal textbook speak. When I got stressed and sent long emails with 10 questions in them, they actually answered them. Sometimes not in five minutes, but they answered. When the insurance company tried to float a low number, they told me straight up, “That is not good enough for what you went through,” and they pushed. I didn’t feel pressured to just settle and shut up. The case went on longer than I wanted, honestly. There were times I was tired of it and just wanted it over. But every time I started to wobble on that, they walked me through what was happening and why it mattered to keep going. In the end, the result was way better than what those first lawyers hinted I could ever get. My mom is obsessed with them now. She still asks, “Have you talked to your Veen people?” and tells everyone they “saved her baby,” which is pretty funny considering I’m not five. She actually told me to make sure I wrote a review, so Mom, if you ever see this, I did it. I’m not saying they can fix everything, because they can’t fix the fact that the accident happened. But they made it possible for me to actually put my life back together in a real way. If you got hurt and other lawyers are brushing you off or making you feel like your case is “too much work,” call The Veen Firm. They didn’t treat me like a problem to get rid of, they treated me like a person they were willing to fight for.....thank you!!!!

In 2019 our firm took on representation of a client who had sustained multiple traumatic injuries in an accident at his workplace in which he was crushed between a truck and a cargo container. It soon became clear that in spite of our firm’s experience this case was simply too complex for us to handle efficiently, so I contacted Elinor Leary of the Veen firm and asked for help. I knew that the Veen firm had the experience and reputation to handle even the most complicated cases, and they absolutely did not disappoint. For five years they worked the case, successfully bringing in defendants and insurance sources few other firms could possibly find. They showed how a top tier law firm works, and their results were nothing less than astounding. The result was far, far better than we had expected, and our client is now financially secure and able to move forward with his life. In addition to their great legal work, the Veen firm was always available and helpful, and we all felt that we were in the best of legal hands. If you are an injured person or a law firm that needs some help with a personal injury or defective product case, I strongly recommend that you contact the Veen firm and discuss your situation with them. I believe they are the best accident and injury firm in California, and I can guarantee you will not regret talking with them about your case.

After being turned away by more than ten other firms, we were incredibly fortunate to find Josephine and her team. They immediately understood the unfairness of our landlord and tenant case and took it on with compassion and a true sense of justice. Within just 10 months, they helped us reach a settlement far beyond what we could have imagined. What really set them apart is that they represent their clients in court, something not every firm offers, and they never charged us a dime until the settlement was finalized. Josephine, Jenan (their amazing paralegal), and their team are not only smart and strategic but also kind, supportive, and genuinely willing to fight for their clients. What could have been an overwhelming and unpleasant process felt manageable because of their guidance and care. We still feel blessed to have had their help and cannot recommend them highly enough.
