Individuals that served in the military and now have mental and/or physical conditions that prevent them from sustaining work may be eligible for Veteran’s Disability (VA) benefits. You may qualify for VA disability benefits for physical conditions (like a chronic illness or injury) and mental health conditions (like PTSD) that developed before, during, or after service.

How much a US veteran can claim is dependent on their service related condition. The disability rating is based on frequency, duration and severity of the symptoms suffered.

The VA application process can be a frustrating one, especially if you are denied after the first time. This is why having a lawyer in your corner can be of great benefit. There are many reasons why someone could be denied VA Benefits, and their attorney or advocate will help them understand what they can do about it.

They'll also prepare the paperwork needed for submitting this claim so that legal representative knows exactly how best to proceed from there on your behalf - all while making sure any additional documentation is sent along if requested by you in advance.

Who is eligible for Veteran’s Disability?

• You got sick or injured while serving in the military—and can link this condition to your illness or injury
• You served on active duty, active duty for training, or inactive duty training
• Your disability must meet VA’s definition of a disability
• You weren’t dishonourably discharged

If you are already receiving disability benefits you may also be able to improve your current package.

How do attorneys charge for SSDI Cases?

Most disability advocates work on a “contingency basis,” meaning that they don't collect fees unless you win your claim. If found not disabled and there's no need for payment of any kind - including representation- then their job is done!
