Veterans Disability Lawyers

A veteran disability lawyer can assist you throughout the claims process. From gathering medical and service evidence to filing an appeal of the denial of your claim.

Choose a veterans disability attorney who is specialized in dealing with these cases and who is familiar with the VA's system from top to bottom. This will ensure that your case gets the attention it deserves.

Proving Service Connection

The VA will only grant disability benefits if it's proved that your condition is related to your military service. This is referred to as a connection. There are many types of evidence to prove this connection. This includes medical records, independent health assessments (IME), or an nexus note from current healthcare providers (especially in the situation of mental health conditions). There are times where veterans are diagnosed with medical disabilities, but they cannot be considered to be service-connected due incomplete or omitted documents. These cases require the help of skilled New York disability lawyers who are able to present a complete claim and submit evidence that is backed by experts who are impartial.

It is easier to establish a direct connection when illnesses or injuries occurred while you served in the military. If you were injured in the military and you now suffer from headaches and concussions it is much easier to establish a direct connection to the service.

However, it's harder to get connected if you have an existing medical condition that got worse when you were in the military. To prove that your service aggravated or worsened a pre-existing condition, you will need to present medical evidence that is "clear and irrefutable".

Appealing a Denied Application

The VA will review your application after you have submitted your application and provided evidence of medical necessity. It usually makes a decision which either approves or denies benefits. If the decision isn't favorable, the veteran has a year to submit a notice of disagreement. A veterans disability law firms disability attorney can assist the claimant through the three decision review options - a supplemental claim or higher-level review, or a direct appeal to the Board of Veterans' Appeals.

Take note of whether the lawyer is familiar with your military experiences as well as the culture of the armed services when selecting a New York veterans' disability lawyer. This can make things easier for you and reduce the necessity to explain your circumstances and experiences in a layman's way.

You also want a firm that will work on your case for the duration of the appeals process over a period of years. Beware of firms that assist you in the initial stages of your claim, and then vanish.

They can help you submit more medical evidence, file an official hearing and represent you at any Board meetings to ensure that your case will be dealt with fairly. They can also help you win your benefits, like monetary compensation, aid and attendance, education benefits or unemployment benefits.

How do I obtain a higher rating

There may be a point when your disability gets worse or your symptoms become more difficult or wider. In that situation, it makes sense to request a higher rating. A veteran disability lawyer can help you with this process, and also help you collect evidence to back your claim.

It's not uncommon for the VA to make mistakes that result in receiving a lower score than you deserve. It's worth contacting an expert to examine your records for errors. They may have overlooked an injury or missed any issue that could have been coupled with another disability to receive an increase in rating.

Even even if it's been more than one year since your initial rating decision, you still have the option of filing an additional review or claim. These require a complete review of your file and can result in an amendment to your effective date or an entirely new rating that's more accurate to what you really feel.

It's also advisable to file a supplemental claim or higher-level review if you're arguing that you are entitled to a disability rating that is 100 percent or more. A disability lawyer can help develop a compelling argument for this rating which is reserved for the most debilitating disabilities. For instance the mental health issue could qualify you for 100% disability ratings because it can cause a significant interference with employment or frequent periods of hospitalization that do not normally trigger this type of an assessment for a cardiovascular disease or other medical issue.

Assistance with the Appeals Process

Contrary to what some may believe the fact that the fact that a VA denial of disability benefits does not mean that the person isn't eligible to receive benefits. Former service members have a year to appeal the decision if it is not favorable.

An experienced veterans disability attorney can help a vet determine which of the three appeals options would be the most appropriate for his situation.
