The Veen Firm

"My husband and I were very fortunate to have met Theo Emison and have him represent us in a medical malpractice case. He made a very painful situation more bearable and our lives less stressful . Theo is not only knowledgeable and an expert in his field, but he is very thorough, timely in his responses to questions that we asked, accommodating, caring, and compassionate as well. We felt well cared for by Theo during our depositions with the opposing counsel. Theo was able to get us a good settlement, and avoid litigation as well! We can’t express our gratitude enough for everything he did for us. It was a pleasure meeting and working with him."

"Theo represented our family in a lawsuit against the City and County of SF. It was an emotional case as it involved the death of our father. From beginning to end, Theo demonstrated an extraordinary amount of compassion, professionalism and competence that made us feel like we were in very good hands. He earned our complete trust by handling our questions, concerns and doubts with patience and honest information. He guided us through an extremely difficult process with poise and grace. We felt that he engaged us in a true partnership to meet our goals of holding CCSF accountable and enacting policy change at CCSF to minimize the chance that a similar harm would come to other citizens of SF in the future. We highly recommend Theo and his team."

"In August of 2016, my husband had a catastrophic and life changing injury on his job. Initially he was not mobile, the Veen Firm traveled from San Francisco to the Central Valley to review his case. From the onset, they were compassionate, professional, and thorough. In the almost four years of our case they were always available to answer questions and concerns, and on a few occasions, they were able to recommend particularly useful resources to navigate aspects of the case that did not involve them. Every encounter we had with any member of this team always left us feeling well cared for, and well represented. Entering the litigation and negotiation phase of our case was an experience I can not quite put in one word. The level of respect and prestige that follows them into a room is palpable, and rightfully so. Their knowledge, level of professionalism and integrity can not be surpassed. A special thank you to Clifton and Elinor for seeing us through to a successful ending. Our family is forever thankful."

"The Veen firm is the most honest, trustworthy law office I have ever dealt with. The Veen firm changed my life and the lives of my family in the most positive way possible. When I was at my worst in life. They came and lifted me up. They protected me and represented me from start to finish. They fought hard and made sure I was fully informed and updated every step of the way. I had the pleasure of having Mr. Veen personally represent me along with Kevin Lancaster and Kimberly Wong. Kevin and Kimberly made the drive from San Francisco to my home in Milpitas, Ca to speak with me in person. The feelings I had from the first encounter to the last was warm genuine and everlasting. I never felt like a client or a paycheck. I was treated like family from day one. We won our case and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome."
