The Veen Firm

I had the privilege of working with Theo Emison, a personal injury attorney with The Veen Firm in San Francisco. We worked together for over a year on a complex personal injury case involving a pharmaceutical company. Although the case ultimately encountered an unexpected legal obstacle, I never once questioned Theo’s dedication, integrity, or commitment. He was exceptionally thorough, worked tirelessly on my behalf and always made me feel that my case truly mattered. During this same period my husband was gravely ill and I was coping with tremendous emotional and physical stress. Throughout it all Theo was kind, patient and compassionate. He always took the time to answer my questions, explain the process clearly and make sure I understood what was happening. His wonderful sense of humor also helped lighten some very difficult days. Theo is not only an outstanding attorney but a genuinely caring person. I recommend him without reservation to anyone looking for a lawyer who is intelligent, hardworking, honest and truly committed to his clients. I will always be grateful for everything he did for me.

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!!!!

My daughter, niece, and I were victims and severely injured in a hit-and-run car crash coming home from the Taylor Swift Eras Tour concert. We hired William Bandettini at The Veen Firm to help us navigate one of the scariest and complex times of our life. William was patient with our questions, and extremely knowledgeable regarding handling this type of insurance claim. William worked diligently and ensured we received the best possible outcome. It was not an easy task, as the person that hit us is at large with multiple felony charges, the owner of his vehicle had little to no insurance, and our medical bills were extensive. William was diligent and negotiated and secured an excellent outcome for all of us. We are eternally grateful for his dedication and hard work to settling our case. We would definitely hire him again.
