Catherine H. Cornell

After several denials from the VA, we retained Catherine Cornell to represent my husband for what seem to be a losing battle. Catherine actively listen to our concerns, she is very compassionate, professional, personable and extremely patient! Catherine continuously provided us with updates for ...the past several years keeping us abreast of the long tedious process. Catherine WON our claim! Catherine Cornell is a great attorney well versed with Veteran Law. We would like to publicly express our gratitude for Catherine’s expertise!

After my application for VA benefits was declined by the VA, I knew that I needed assistance appealing my case. I contacted several law firms that specialized in veterans benefits, some were not interested in my case, and some did not even return my phone call. I found Mrs. Cornell on a the Nationa...l Veterans Advocates Assn. website and decided to contact her. She took the time to listen to my story and was confident from the beginning that I had a strong case and a high likelihood of winning my appeal. Utilizing years of experience and intimate knowledge of veterans law and the VA system, she meticulously reviewed my files and she built my case and expertly guided me though the steps of building a appeal that would be difficult to deny my service connection. It was clearly event though our interactions that she has the best interests of veterans at heart, and conducts herself with the utmost professionalism and integrity. I have recommended her to my veteran peers, family, and would highly recommend Mrs. Cornell of the Veterans Practice to anyone needing assistance with denied VA benefits!

The world of VA Compensation & Disability Claims can be very nerve-wracking experience, especially if you go at it alone. I spent the better part of four (4) years collecting personal military records and other documentation that I thought would help solidify my claim, unfortunately for me, the VA wa...s not impressed. My confidence was absolutely shattered. It wasn't until I talked with Catherine, that my confidence returned and I felt like I had a fighting chance. Of all the attorneys that I spoke with in regards to my claim, Catherine made it seem like I was her one and only client. She kept me up to date on every step of the process. When my claim was denied a second time, she never lost hope and went right back to work. And through it all, I can finally say our journey is complete! The week before Thanksgiving I was notified that my VA Appeal had finally been approved and I have Catherine to thank! I am very thankful for her dedication to her craft and the passion she carries for veterans and their families! If you are considering hiring an attorney for a VA claim, look no further!

I started working with Catherine after 3 years of strugging with my VA disability appeal which involved a physical combat injury as well as PTSD. I was getting nowhere and thinking of giving up. The day I recieved my last chance to improve case in the next 30 days letter I was referred to Catherine... and am so thankful I was. She met with me quickly and left no stones unturned on our way to building the strongest case for my appeal possible using her invaluable expertise in law and especially the inner-workings of the VA bureaucratic machine. When all was said and done she produced results I wouldn't have thought possible especially trying to put an appeal together on my own. Catherine is from a military family and treats her clients like family. She is always available when I have questions and goes above and beyond to look out for her clients well-being not just their case. My family and I are so thankful for her help I can't imagine where we'd be without her. Thanks Catherine!

Catherine provided invaluable assistance in dealing with the VA. Definitely knows how to resolve issues. Was completely honest as she steered toward a resolution of my issues. I couldn't have been more pleased with her caring and commitment. I would (and have) highly recommended her to others. A... real fighter.
