To: Those Deserving Justice,

I have NO doubt in my mind that Scott Bandstra and Katie O'Connor are the best legal representation an individual seeking justice and fairness in life may find following a long and painful journey. I am willing to accept that there are many mysteries in life and many outcomes are not favorable or fair. Our culture expects us to accept this phenomenon within a certain tolerance level. Unfortunately, countless examples of tragedy reminds our society that there comes a place in time where enough is enough. An individual or even a formidable family can no longer fight the good fight anymore. Once you recognize that the line has been crossed beyond the point of return (the earlier the better) you call the Bandstra Law Firm! Speaking of my own experience, I was completely defeated and my circumstances were impossible to comprehend. Fortunately for me I confided in a person I trusted wholeheartedly and informed him of my situation. Having compassion for me and my best interests in mind, the well-respected community elder did not hesitate for a second when he said to me "you need to call Scott Bandstra, you cannot leave this to an amateur." Not knowing what to expect, I did just that and was amazed by the sense of hope and courage that I had not felt in over 2 years in a matter of moments. I remember quite well how blunt I was with him when I said, "Mr. Bandstra, I need an ass kicker" and he said, "I'm your man." Mr. Bandstra with the assistance of Katie O'Connor and the compassionate approach of his wife, took me in as if I were a part of their family. He was completely honest with me every step of the way and encouraged me to "do the next right thing." A "devil for the details," Scott Bandstra unraveled the extremely complicated mess and ugly label that had come to define me and control me. When I look back someday on this life changing event, my goal is to say that I continued to do the next right thing just as he suggested. His remarkable navigational skills through the legal system and understanding of the Latin language are unmatched. I am a humble person who speaks the truth and if anyone were to ever request a referral for an attorney from me, I would simply say, "Go with Scott Bandstra, you sure as hell don't want to go against him."
