HOW CAN A VETERAN DISABILITY APPEALS LAWYER FROM VETLAW HELP ME?
* ARE YOU WAITING FOR THE VA'S DECISION?
Some veterans who are disabled apply for disability compensation and receive
the compensation they deserve without much trouble. Unfortunately, most
veterans encounter resistance when they attempt to make a claim. In order for
a VA disability attorney to help you, you typically must have been denied at
least one time before an attorney can assist you. If you are waiting for your
decision, we encourage you to learn more how the appeals process and how we
should be your first call if you find out your VA disability benefits have
been denied.
The Appeals Process
* HAVE YOU RECEIVED A VA DENIAL?
If you have already received a denial, many people wait until it is too late
to contact our office regarding their VA disability claim. Unfortunately,
veterans only have one year from the date Veteran Affairs mails its decision
to file an appeal. Waiting too long to take action can jeopardize the success
of your case and prevent you from obtaining the benefits you need and
deserve. For this reason, it is important for you to contact a nationwide
veteran disability attorney as soon as possible regarding your VA disability
claim.
Contact Us
* ARE YOU A FAMILY MEMBER OF A VETERAN SEEKING HELP?
There are several resources available to support the surviving family members
and loved ones of veterans. The Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC)
program provides monthly benefits to the surviving spouses, parents, and
dependent children of veterans only for service-connected deaths, meaning the
cause of death must be shown to be related to military service. For more
information on DIC and other resources for families, in addition to
disability compensation, read more below or schedule a free case review to
understand more about benefits for families.

OUR VALUES & APPROACH
VetLaw is made up of a team of compassionate and dedicated individuals who are
committed to advocating for the rights of veterans across the country. United by
the core belief that all veterans should be able to access the benefits they
need and deserve, our team has spent a decade building a practice that upholds
the interests of veterans and ensures that they are seen as more than just a
number in the system.
Our legal practice is made up of two nationwide veteran disability attorneys,
Founder and Lead Attorney Brendan Garcia and Appellate Attorney Matthew White.
Lead Attorney Brendan Garcia has taken his Marine Corps experience and time
spent working as an attorney for Veterans Affairs and created a practice to
address the common concerns and challenges faced by veterans at a systemic
level. Appellate Attorney Matthew White was called to service due to his family
connection to the armed forces and a deep desire to help veterans navigate the
appeals process.

Under this new system, veterans have three review options when filing a VA
disability appeal, which include:
* Supplemental Claim: if you have new or relevant evidence that was not already
reviewed by Veteran Affairs, submitting a supplemental claim allows you to
provide this evidence.
* Higher-Level Review: this option is beneficial for individuals who believe an
error occurred during the claims process. Here, a senior reviewer will
reassess your claim and determine if a second option changes the outcome of
your case.
* Board Appeal: requesting a board appeal takes your case directly to the Board
of Veterans’ Appeals in Washington, D.C. Through this option, you can request
a direct review, submit additional evidence, or petition for a hearing in
front of a Veterans Law Judge.
The review option that you use to file a VA disability appeal will depend on the
unique circumstances of your case. A knowledgeable nationwide veteran disability
appeals lawyer can provide further insight into which type of review option is
right for you.
More FAQs
With DIC, the cause of death does not have to be service connected prior to the
veteran dying, but if it wasn’t, the widow must show a connection to service to
win entitlement to DIC. The exception to this rule is if a veteran was 100% for
at least 10 years prior to death. We know these rules are not always easy to
follow and your nationwide veteran disability appeals lawyer from VetLaw can
help you understand the eligibility requirements and navigate receiving
compensation under this program.
In addition to disability compensation, the VA also provides the following
resources to the surviving family members of veterans:
* Education and training assistance to cover the costs of tuition, housing,
books, and supplies
* Career and employment counseling to understand your career options and
navigate the potential barriers to success
* Healthcare
* Housing assistance, offering three loan guaranty programs to help refinance a
mortgage or purchase a new home
* Life insurance coverage to provide financial assistance to the surviving
family members of veterans
* Burial and memorial services
* Pensions
Your attorney or local Veterans Affairs office can provide further insight into
the resources available to you and your family, and help you apply for any
benefits that you are eligible for.
