Meet Stephani BennettStephani Bennett
VA attorney Stephani Bennett has been passionately advocating for veterans’ rights for the past five years. Stephani is an Air Force veteran who has experienced the VA disability system firsthand. She was inspired by her own military service to devote her career to defending the rights of her fellow veterans. A gifted writer, Stephani’s passion for law was sparked at her alma mater, the University of Nebraska at Omaha.
Stephani graduated magna cum laude from the university and received her Juris Doctor from the school of law. During her time in college, Stephani took an introduction to civil litigation elective and realized she could use her natural writing ability to help others through law. She has a particular area of expertise in connecting Thailand Agent Orange exposure.
When she is not fighting for the disability rights of Veterans, Stephani enjoys spending her time playing hockey and is known as an elite player at her local league.
