Our accredited VA attorneys have extensive experience in all aspects of veterans benefits law and are dedicated to helping you secure the compensation and benefits you deserve.

Our comprehensive approach to VA claims includes:

  • Appeals Support → If your claim has been denied, we provide representation throughout the appeals process.
  • Ongoing Advocacy → We advocate on your behalf at every stage of the VA claims process.

Eligibility Requirements

Understanding eligibility for VA benefits can be complex. Generally, you may be eligible if you:

  • Served in the active military, naval, or air service
  • Were discharged under conditions other than dishonorable
  • Have a current medical condition that may be related to your service

Our team can help you determine your eligibility and navigate the specific requirements for different types of claims.

The VA Claims Process

The VA claims process typically involves several steps:

  1. Claim Preparation → Gathering service records, medical documentation, and other supporting evidence
  2. Claim Filing → Submitting your completed claim to the VA
  3. VA Review → The VA evaluates your claim and may request additional information
  4. C&P Examination → You may be asked to attend a Compensation & Pension examination
  5. Decision → The VA issues a rating decision on your claim

Our attorneys guide you through each of these steps, ensuring your claim is thoroughly prepared and properly presented.

The Appeals Process

If your claim is denied or you disagree with the rating decision, you have the right to appeal. The appeals process can be particularly complex, with several potential paths:

  • Supplemental Claim → Submitting new and relevant evidence
  • Higher-Level Review → Requesting a review by a senior VA adjudicator
  • Board Appeal → Appealing to the Board of Veterans' Appeals

Our experienced attorneys can help you determine the best appeal strategy for your specific situation and represent you throughout the process.
