How Sayuri works a case
Sayuri begins with a calendar. She asks when you raised the concern, when your schedule changed and who else was on shift, then lays the dates side by side.
She tells clients early what a claim can and can't do, including the cases she thinks are better left alone. Clients can reach her at the Torrance office on set evenings.
