    Veterans Disability Litigation

    A lawyer can help veterans start a claim for disability benefits or challenge a VA decision. However, the law currently prohibits lawyers from charging for assistance in filing an initial claim.

    Monk alleges that the VA denied his claim for benefits due to PTSD and an unfavorable discharge. The VA has an extensive appeals process to correct any unfavorable determinations.

    What is an VA Disability Claim (VAD)?

    A VA disability claim is an application for monthly benefits that are tax-free. Compensation provides a cash benefit to cover things like housing and medical expenses. Dependency and Indemnity Compensation provides an amount of money to parents, spouses and children of Service members who have died while on active duty or as a result of disability related to service.

    Tinnitus is the most common disability. It is a condition that manifests when you hear sounds ringing in your ears, the sound of hissing or buzzing sounds, or any other sounds however, you are unable to hear them.

    Sciatica is one of the most frequent conditions. Sciatica can occur when a herniated disk or bone spur causes compression of your sciatic nerve. The sciatic nerve runs from the lower part of your spine through your buttocks and hips and down your legs. The numbness and pain can be felt in the buttocks, lower leg and feet. It can be quite severe.

    The 3rd most simple condition to be able to qualify for is Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This occurs when you experience constant nightmares, extreme anxiety or depression, or thoughts that are uncontrollable regarding a specific incident which occurred during your military service. You can obtain the PTSD rating you deserve by making a convincing claim and citing a stressful event that happened during your service. A traumatizing brain injury is the 4th most common condition to qualify for and usually accompanies an PTSD diagnosis.

    How do I make a claim for a VA Disability?

    There are a number of steps that must be taken to submit an claim. First, you must provide medical evidence such as an opinion from a doctor or lab report, as well as X-rays to prove that your condition falls within the VA's definition of disability. It is a good idea to get a lawyer to gather this evidence medically and provide it as part of your initial application so that the VA can review it faster.

    Then, you'll have to take an Compensation and Pension (C&P) test. The exam will be conducted by an federal VA rater who will assess your physical and mental health to decide whether or not you are eligible for disability benefits. You must have all the required documentation in order to increase your chances of obtaining benefits.

    After the C&P examiner has assessed your medical evidence and completed the exam, you will receive a decision letter. This letter will contain an introduction, the decision of your disability and amount as well as a list and the description of all medical evidence considered as well as any reasons for their decision.

    How do I challenge a VA decision?

    VA offers three options to take when a claimant is not happy with a decision. The first is a Higher-Level Review where a senior reviewer will scrutinize the same evidence again and determine if the original decision is valid because of a difference of opinion or an error that was made. This is a great option for a person who has no new evidence to provide and can be completed in 125 days.

    The second option is to file a Supplemental Claim. This is an appeal process where a veteran can add new evidence, but it needs to be new and relevant. It can also be accompanied by non-medical evidence like lay statements (sworn declarations from people who understand how your condition affects you). This type of appeal should be submitted within one year of a decision.

    Thirdly, you can file a formal complaint with the Board of Veterans Appeals. This involves filing a Notification of Disagreement using VA Form 21-0958. After the appeal has been filed, the regional office will draft an Statement of the Case or SOC that will outline the laws and regulations utilized in determining the decision, as well as a list of the evidence examined and a description of why the decision was made as either favorable, unfavorable, or indeterminate.

    If the BVA decision is upheld in the end, the only alternative is to refer the case to a federal appeals court. This is the most challenging option and may be costly, however it is the only way to ensure an equitable outcome for your client.

    What is the cost a lawyer will Charge for appeals?

    A skilled veteran disability lawyer provides clarity to the appeals process. He or she will quickly determine what was lacking from your initial claim to be eligible to be reviewed and help you decide the best method to appeal the decision. The job entails analyzing the reasons behind refusal, helping you create medical evidence to support your case, and presenting the evidence in a way that is appropriate.

    If a court orders a disabled veteran to pay alimony or child support, that veteran isn't allowed to ignore the order and continue to collect VA compensation benefits. This is a widely-recognized law and there are consequences when you do not comply with the order of a judge.

    A recent settlement of a class action lawsuit may be a significant win for veterans with PTSD. Medical News Today reports that the settlement will result in lifetime benefits for a large number of veterans disability who were previously denied disability benefits.

    Jim is a veteran of 58 years who suffered a stroke that made him permanently disabled. He receives a pension from the VA, but also SSI and Medicaid payments. Jim wants to know whether the $100,000 settlement will impact his ability to receive these benefits.
