Katrina Johanna Eagle

On August 10, 2015 my husband David W Baierl had surgery to remove a tumor on the left side of his brain. After having difficulty with his speech, a trip to emergency and several test (Cat Scan and MRI, the doctors found a mass which was later known to be Glioblastoma Multiforme Grade 4. It’s a fas...t growing and very aggressive type of cancer. A few weeks his after surgery Dave started radiation and chemotherapy. He was very brave as he went through several months of treatments and followed by more MRI’s. For a short time, the tumor (most was removed during the surgery) had shrunk considerably. That didn’t last long. The MRI showed it was growing and broke through the scar tissue from the surgery and began to spread. We decided to try electric field therapy. Patches were applied to Dave’s head and I had to change them every other day. Dave developed a terrible infection and had to discontinue the therapy. In May 2016, we contacted the VA in our county to ask if Dave’s cancer could be connected to Agent Orange. His type of cancer was not on the list of cancers caused by the use of Agent Orange in Vietnam. We contacted Katrina Eagle (Veteran Attorney) and she agreed to take our case and help my husband. She kept in touch and walked me through forms that needed to be filled out. She called several times to let us know how things were moving along. In December 2016, Dave was granted full disability and received a check which included back pay from the day he was diagnosed. Katrina Eagle is the most caring person and is dedicated to working for our veterans. Dave was able to see the results. He passed away April 18, 2017. He was a loving husband, fantastic father and grandfather and was always proud to be a Vietnam veteran. He loved his country. Thank you Katrina for all your hard work and moving the process along so quickly. God Bless! Carol Baierl

Katrina Eagle is a dedicated and skilled attorney committed to helping veterans receive the benefit entitlements they are due. I have seen her compelling and effective conference presentations educating professionals, government officials, advocates and individual veterans alike. She is a tireless a...dvocate with a strong track record of accomplishments with veteran agencies and coalitions.

Katrina Eagle is a no nonsense attorney who knows the in's and out's of the VA system. She knows how to cut through the red tape and get a quick decision. She knows the correct terminology the VA uses that would other wise leave you chasing your tail. I fought the VA for six years before hiring her. ...I could have cut that time down to maybe 3 years with her representation.

I hired Katrina Eagle to assist me in obtaining an earlier effective date for my 100% disability rating. My case was at the BVA when i hired her. I had been fighting with the VA for thirteen years for them to do the right thing. Katrina Eagle was successful in obtaining an earlier effective date f...or me. I cannot praise Katrina Eagle highly enough. She is extremely helpful, she kept me informed the whole time, she explained everything to me and she was successful. My wife worked in law firms for over 20 years and says that Katrina Eagle is one of the most honest, ethical, trustworthy and dedicated lawyers she has ever had dealings with. I have worked with lawyers in the past for other matters and none of them gave me the confidence or the time that Katrina Eagle gave me. I have recommended Katrina Eagle to everyone in my area that I know is having trouble with their claims at the VA and I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who needs legal assistance with their VA cases. If your case is winnable she will fight for you until she wins it. If your case is not winnable, she will tell you so and tell you why. I highly recommend Katrina Eagle.

I spoke with this lawyer several times over the past 2 years for advice on my VA disability claim. She was prompt to return my calls, and offered her time to help me understand how the VA system works. I was very confused as to the proper procedure of to file my appeal when my case was denied. She... reviewed my documents for free and explained to me the reason why I was denied, and what I needed to win with my claim. I did not hire her, because she explained that I did not need an attorney yet, but instead took the time to explain what mecical evidence I needed. I thought she was fair to help me for free, when other attorneys I called never returned my call. I have refered several people to her since. I finally got a new decision on my claim- and was granted, based on the information she told me I would need.
