Veterans benefits is an area of law that this very unique.
As a veterans benefits and disability attorney, the idea behind these blog postings is to inspire a conversation with military veterans and their families seeking help.
Thus, I hope you enjoy my postings.
Benefits for military veterans are constantly changing. Likewise, the needs of a veteran change too. For some military vets, they need help with their employment status. Others need help with a disability ratings and pensions.
Below, please find discussions about appeals, effective dates, notices, funeral services, increased ratings, and applicable VA Forms just to name a few.
Also, you will find topics regarding an appeal to a Regional Office, BVA and the Veteran’s Appeals Court.
As most veterans are aware, rights and benefits are overwhelming. As a Veteran myself, using military language comes easy. Sometimes, this can be helpful in the application process or finding a specific form for assistance.
I am very grateful to those offering comments and sharing these posts with other people.
Otherwise, if a veteran or their family needs help with an issue or matter, please contact this law office for one-on-one attention.
