Our Core Values
We live and lead by four simple principles that define every case we take on.
Jesse Cowell
Lawyer
Jesse Cowell focuses his practice on long-term disability insurance claims, ERISA matters, appeals, and litigation.
With more than a decade of legal experience, Jesse has represented clients in state and federal courts and before administrative agencies. These cases demand careful preparation, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of a highly regulated legal system. He has built his practice around helping clients navigate that complexity with clarity, persistence, and practical guidance.
A graduate of Portland State University and Lewis & Clark Law School, Jesse combines strong legal credentials with a commitment to treating every client with dignity and respect. Before becoming an attorney, he proudly served in the U.S. Coast Guard, an experience that helped shape his disciplined, service-oriented approach to advocacy.
Clients appreciate not only his legal knowledge, but his ability to explain difficult issues in plain language and remain accessible throughout the process.
When insurance companies say "no," Jesse helps clients understand their options, build the strongest possible case, and pursue the benefits they've earned.
"Dealing with a disability is hard enough. The system shouldn't make it harder."
Raechel Cowell
Operations & Client Experience
For many clients, Raechel is the first voice they hear.
She understands that reaching out often comes during one of the most stressful seasons of a person's life.
From the first phone call through the progression of a case, Raechel works to make every client feel welcomed, informed, and supported. She helps coordinate communication, answer questions and ensure clients always know what to expect next.
Her goal is simple:
Help every person who contacts Cowell Law feel like they finally have someone in their corner.
What Makes Cowell Law Different
Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
People facing a disability shouldn't have to fight confusing systems alone. We understand that clear
communication builds trust, preparation wins cases, and compassion and professionalism belong together.
We Answer.
Questions don't wait for business hours, and neither should communication. Our clients consistently tell us how refreshing it is to work with a firm that actually responds.
We Explain.
Insurance law can be confusing. We break complicated legal issues into clear next steps so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
We Stay With You.
Many firms focus only on getting the case resolved. We continue helping clients navigate ongoing compliance requirements and future issues that may arise. When your situation changes, we're still here.
We Take On Difficult Cases.
Some cases require persistence. Some require creativity. Some require simply refusing to give up. We're prepared for all three.
