I have known Kathy Jo Cook for more than 23 years. We worked together for a number of years but have also been involved in some of the same legal organizations throughout our careers. I have had an opportunity to observe her talents and dedication as an attorney and I would not hesitate to recommend her to other lawyers or to friends and family members.
