A lawyer may help veterans disability attorney file an initial disability claim or contest the VA decision on the claim. Currently, lawyers are not allowed to charge for initial claims.

Monk claims that the VA denied his claims for benefits based on PTSD and an unfavorable discharge. The VA has a lengthy appeals process to making amends to any decision that is not favorable.

What is a VA Disability Claim (VAD)?

A VA disability claim is a request for tax-free monthly benefits. Compensation is an income-based benefit that can be used to pay for medical treatment or housing assistance. Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) offers a monetary benefit to parents, spouses and children of Service members who died in active duty or from service-related disabilities.

Tinnitus is by far the most frequently reported disorder. This condition occurs when you hear a ringing, hissing buzzing or other sounds from either or both ears. It is only heard by you, as opposed to other people who have it.

Sciatica is one of the conditions that is easier to diagnose. Sciatica is a condition that occurs when a herniated disk or bone spur can compress your sciatic nerve. This nerve is located in the lower part of your spine through your hips, buttocks, and down your legs. Lower legs and buttocks may be affected by discomfort and the numbness.

Post Traumatic Stress (PTSD) is the third most straightforward condition to be eligible for. It's when you have constant nightmares, extreme anxiety or depression or uncontrollable thoughts about a specific event that took place during your military service. You can obtain the PTSD rating you are entitled to by making a compelling claim and citing an event that happened during your service. A traumatic head injury is the fourth most straightforward condition to prove and is typically associated with the PTSD diagnosis.

How do I file a claim for VA Disability?

There are several steps to be followed to start an claim. You must first present medical evidence, like the opinion of a doctor and lab results as well as X-rays, to prove that your condition is in line with VA's definition of disability. It is a good idea to get a lawyer to gather this evidence medically and include it in your initial application, so that the VA will be able to process it more easily.

You then need to go through a Compensation and Pensions (C&P). It will be administered by an official from the federal VA rater who will examine your symptoms and physical condition to determine whether or not you are eligible for disability benefits. You must have all the documentation required to increase your chances of obtaining benefits.

You will receive a letter of decision once the C&P examiner reviews your medical evidence and completes the exam. This will contain an introduction, a determination of your disability rating and the specific amount, a list of the medical evidence they reviewed and a list of any reasons why they did not choose you in making their decision.

How can I challenge a VA Decision?

VA has three routes to take when a claimant disagrees with the decision. First an Senior Reviewer will look over the same evidence and determine whether the initial decision could alter based on a divergence of opinion or an exclusion. This is a possibility for those who do not have new evidence to prove. It can be completed in 125 days.

The second option is to submit an Supplemental Claim. It is an appeal where an individual with a disability can submit new evidence, but it must be relevant and new. It may also contain non-medical evidence such as lay statements (sworn statements from people who understand how your condition affects you). This type of appeal must be submitted within one year after a decision.

A third option is to submit a formal appeal to the Board of Veterans Appeals. This is done by filing a VA Form 21-0958 and a Notice Of Disagreement. The regional office will draft an SOC (Statement of the case) when the appeal is filed. This will contain a list of the evidence taken into account, the regulations and veterans disability laws used to arrive at the decision and the reasons why the decision was favorable, not favorable, 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 can be expensive but it is the only option to obtain an appropriate outcome for your client.

How much will a lawyer Charge for Appeals?

A good veteran disability attorney can help you understand the appeals process. He or she will quickly determine what was lacking from your initial claim to allow it for review and will assist you in choosing the most effective method to appeal the decision. The job includes examining the reasons behind denial, assisting you in preparing medical evidence to support your claim, and presenting the evidence in a way that is appropriate.

If an order from a court requires that a disabled veteran pay child maintenance or alimony and child maintenance, the veteran cannot evade the order and continue receive VA compensation benefits. This is a law that is well-known and there are consequences for breaking an order of a court.

A recent settlement in a class action lawsuit could be a huge victory for veterans suffering from PTSD. Medical News Today reports the settlement will enable thousands of veterans who were previously not eligible for disability benefits to receive lifetime benefits.
