Client Testimonials

Client Brian Kolbe

"When I explained to my father that you all had volunteered your time to help him, he was elated. He told me that it was the first time in his life that someone other than his family appreciated his service and went out of their way to assist him. Regardless of the outcome of his VA claim, what you gave to him can never fully be expressed. You helped to restore pride for his military service and showed him that there are a lot of amazing people who care for the countless men like my father. My family and I are indebted to you all for helping bring back that pride in his last few months of his life. The [Veterans and Servicemembers Legal Clinic] at Penn State is nothing short of amazing."

Client Alacyn Pegher

"[Clinic staff and students] were invaluable to me during my husband’s treatment, transplants, and death. Ms. Vollmer’s knowledge of veterans law and her tireless dedication never ceased to amaze me. We were impressed with the interest and concern the students expressed regarding our life . . . the decision of 100% disability is solely the result of Ms. Vollmer, and her team, and their dedication and selflessness. I will be forever grateful to them."

Client Kathy Marusa

"I am so grateful to Michele Vollmer and the students of the law school clinic for helping me to resolve my father’s issues and provide him with the honor and dignity he deserves as a WWII Veteran. ... I personally owe them a heartfelt debt of gratitude and we as a community are lucky to have such dedicated and caring individuals willing to give of their free time to help our honored veterans."

Client Robert Slaney

"The efforts of [clinic faculty and students] have extended well beyond anything we imagined. The legal and medical background and the somewhat peculiar machinations of the VA system were researched thoroughly and understood. We attended multiple meetings in which our voices were heard, our opinions sought, and our input respected and valued."
