Mesothelioma Lawyer and U.S. Marine Corps Veteran
Brian J. Cooke is a mesothelioma attorney with Simmons Hanly Conroy and a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps. Thanks in part to his military service, Brian is in tune with many of the issues that veterans with mesothelioma face. Brian and his team work tirelessly to secure compensation for those with this rare and deadly cancer.
Brian Cooke is a long-serving attorney with Simmons Hanly Conroy, having joined the firm in 2004. He pursues compensation for those who developed mesothelioma after being exposed to asbestos decades earlier.
Prior to his work at the firm, Brian graduated from the University of Missouri Columbia’s School of Law and served two tours of duty as a U.S. Marine.
As an attorney, Brian is no stranger to helping those who have been wronged — specifically U.S. veterans with service-related injuries like mesothelioma. This cancer has impacted thousands of veterans through no fault of their own, and Brian works to support them.
“Every client gets my card and I make sure to run a pen right underneath my cell phone number before I hand it to them. They are not just allowed to call me; they are encouraged.” Brian Cooke, Asbestos Lawyer & Marine Corps Veteran
