In this article, we propose a numerical method for a general form of nonlinear cordial Volterra integral equations. We discuss conditions that under them the problem has solutions. Since the existence of solutions for the problem depends on the solvability of a scalar equation and also a linear form of the problem, then we employ quasilinearization technique in which solving a nonlinear problem is reduced to solve a sequence of linear equations. The existence of solutions of linear equations and their quadratically convergence to the solutions of the nonlinear problem is considered. For the numerical solution of the produced linear equations we apply Legendre-collocation method along with a regularization technique for the quadrature formulas. We discuss the error analysis of the collocation method considering that the cordial Volterra integral operators are noncompact. To test the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method, the solution of different cases of numerical examples are reported.
