View Veterans Disability Commercial
Veterans of the United States armed services are eligible for benefits from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for medical treatment related to service-connected medical issues and disability compensation for service-related disabilities.
Applying for veterans disability and medical benefits can be a difficult and lengthy process, especially if you have been denied by your local veterans hospital or veterans office. Fortunately, an extensive appeal process has been established for those who have filed a claim with the Veterans Administration and have received an unfavorable determination. However, time is of the essence, unless you can introduce new evidence, or the VA has made an unmistakeable error, you only have one year from the date the local VA office mails you an initial determination of your claim.
While you do not need an attorney or representative to assist you in appealing your claim, due to the technical, procedural and legal nature of the appeals process, it is important to have someone on your side.
