A: Most veterans do not enlist a lawyer during the initial application process for VA disability claims. However, an attorney that has experience with disability claims may be extremely helpful if you need to appeal your claim for any reason.
How can a disability attorney help you during the appeal process? Very simply, we know the law. Veterans’ law is complicated and ever changing – and because the Department of Veterans Affairs is so overwhelmed with cases, they can make mistakes when handling your claim. An attorney can make certain that your case is handled fairly, that you avoid the red tape of the system, and that you get the compensation that you deserve. At the same time, an attorney can help you investigate your case and collect the evidence you need to prove that you deserve disability benefits.
Returning home from active duty with a disability can be extremely difficult, as can struggling with a new illness or condition that you believe is service-related. The last thing that you want to do (or feel capable of doing) is fight the VA for compensation. In that sense, a disability attorney is there to walk you through the process, take the burden of an appeal off of your shoulders, and work at your side.
