Big win for Andy and Kim - defense verdict
A big congratulations to Andy Cooley and Kim Waldbaum, who won a defense verdict earlier today in a trial at the Federal District Court in Tacoma. Andy and Kim represented the City of Olympia and one of its police officers against a claim of excessive force brought by two men who had assaulted the officer on the night in question. The trial lasted three weeks. The jury returned a defense verdict on all claims after a short deliberation. Great work, Andy and Kim!
“It was very apparent to me that Stew's skillful representation of our officers was personal to him, they were more than simply another client”
