Injured worker lawyer representative

I would like to recommend Patrick and his law firm. I would also like to recognize Stephanie Kasper. I have been represented by them for the past two plus years. They give professional,personal and ethical care. I was treated with respect and care every step of the way. I could not ask for better car...e. I have so much respect for them as an injured worker they will work tirelessly to help you through every aspect of your claim and represent you. I was in very good hands and would recommend them to anyone dealing with a injured worker claim.

Excellent with My Sedgwick claim!

Patrick Cook and Stephanie Kasper of Walthew Law Firm did an amazing job for Me during my struggle with Sedgwick. Stephanie was my constant contact letting me know what I needed to do and what was going on step by step. Even when I was emotionally drained and out right terrified they both walked me t...hrough this process and made all the right moves and legal processing that needed to be done. I would recommend Patrick and Stephanie to anyone who needs a qualified and expert legal team to stand with you and protect your rights. My gratitude for your services forever. Thank You both!.

L&I

I was injured at work on my neck and had a fusion on my c5-c6 spine which left me with a lot of stress, questions and uncertainty. I contacted The Walthew Law Firm where I met with Patrick C. Cook and his paralegal Marilyn Mc Doo at their office, they were very prompt and professional during the cons...ultation, I can say that the atmosphere and the way they greeted me made me feel like a very important client, and they took consideration for any conditions I had at the time. I then received representation from The Walthew Law Firm and have been pleased with my overall experience with them. Patrick Cook handled everything else, including the legal issues, doctor’s bills. The paralegal Marilyn Mc doo assigned to my case was amazing, she handled all my issues with L&I. On behalf of Patrick Cook, she responded promptly to my phone calls and emails and gave me solid advice on what to do next as my case was moving forward. I was so please on my decision to seek legal counsel, I frankly don’t know how I would have done it without The Walthew Law Firm. I would recommend 100% the firm, and if you do hire them as your lawyers, try to make sure Patrick C. Cook is your legal lawyer. Once again, thank you very much Patrick for been there for me. He is the BEST!!!!!!!!

My personal opinion about the work of my lawyer.

My case is an accident in my work and my experience with this group of lawyers especially with Mrs. Vitalia Bopp, has been totallmente professional, they but especially she has been in contact with me at all times and that part to me to made to feel comfortable and secure. I feel satisfied by the gre...at work that have done till now. unfortunately my case has been very difficult because my employer did not accept responsibility, even I had already had other lawyers but were not giving me the service I occupied. Mr. Patrick is my lawyer and fought for me to at all times, for now I'm going to retrain them and then fight for a good trade, I'm sure of that.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have known Patrick Cook since he was a prosecutor with King county many, many years ago. A straight-up, caring person, he always sought "justice", a rare commodity in many attorneys or aspects of our judicial system. I send all my Workmen's Comp cases to him because of his skill and diligent hard work, as well as the fact that his firm has been the "go to" Workmen's Comp firm for decades! I trust him with my most valued friends and clients! You won't go wrong!"
