Veterans Disability Lawyers

A veteran disability lawyer will guide you through the entire claim process. From collecting medical and service evidence to filing an appeal on a denied claim, a veteran disability lawyer can assist you throughout the entire claim process.

Select a veteran disability attorney that is solely handling these cases and knows the VA's system inside and out. This will ensure your case receives the attention it deserves.

Proving Service Connection

The VA will only provide disability benefits only if you prove that the condition you have is connected to your military service. This is known as a nexus. There are various types of evidence that you can prove this connection, such as medical records as well as independent medical examinations (IME) and the nexus letter from your current health professionals or therapists (especially for mental health issues). There are times when veterans have medically determined disabilities, but cannot be considered service-connected due to insufficient or missing documents. These cases require the assistance of experienced New York disability lawyers who know how to make a complete claim and present evidence that is backed by experts who are independent.

It is much easier to establish a direct service connection when injuries or illnesses occurred during your time in the military. If you suffered injuries in the military and you now suffer from headaches or concussions, it's easier to establish a direct connection to the service.

However, it's more difficult to be connected if you have a pre-existing medical condition that became worse during your time in the military. To prove that your service aggravated or made worse an existing medical condition, you must supply expert medical evidence that is at the level of "clear and unmistakable" proof.

Appealing a Denial

The VA will review your application after you have submitted your application and provided evidence of medical necessity. It usually issues a ruling that either approves or denies benefits. If the decision is unfavorable the veteran is given one year to file a Notice of Disagreement. A veterans disability lawyer can help the claimant navigate the three options for review that include the supplemental claim, the higher-level review or an appeal directly to the Board of Veterans' Appeals.

When deciding on when choosing a New York veterans disability lawyer Take into consideration whether they understand your military experiences and the military's culture. This can make it easier for you and reduce the need to explain your situations and experiences in layman's language.

You should also find a firm that will work on your case throughout the duration of the appeals process over a period of years. Be wary of companies that assist you in the initial stages of your case, only to then disappear.

A seasoned New York veterans disability lawsuits' disability attorney can assist you at every stage of your claim, including appeals. They can help you submit additional medical evidence, request a formal hearing and represent you at any Board meetings to ensure your case is dealt with fairly. They can also assist you in obtaining you benefits such as monetary compensations, aid and attendance benefits, educational benefits, or unemployedness.

Earning a higher rating

There may come a time where your disability gets more severe or your symptoms become more complicated or broad. It makes sense in this instance to seek a higher rating. A veterans disability lawyer can help with that procedure, and assist you in finding evidence to back your request.

It's not uncommon to see the VA to make mistakes that result in being awarded a lower rating than what you deserve. If they overlook an injury you've suffered or ignore a condition that could be linked with other disabilities to receive a higher rating, it's worth having an expert review your records to spot any mistakes.

You may still file a higher-level claim or review if you've been assessed for more than a calendar year. This involves a thorough review of your dossier and may result in the change of your effective date or an updated rating that is more in line with how you really feel.

If you think you're worthy of an assessment of 100 percent, or more, it's worth making a claim for supplemental benefits. A disability lawyer can help build a strong case for this rating, which is reserved only for the most debilitating disabilities. For example the mental health issue could qualify you for 100% disability ratings because it can cause marked disruption to your work or frequent periods of hospitalization. These don't normally trigger such rating for cardiovascular condition or other medical problem.

Help with the Appeals Process

Contrary to what many people think the denial of a disability claim by the VA is not the end of a person's chances to recover benefits. In fact, a former soldier has one year from the date their local veterans hospital or office sends them a denial to appeal.

An experienced veterans disability lawyer can help a veteran determine which of the three current appeals routes is most suitable for their case. They can also assist veterans in obtaining the evidence required to convince a higher-level reviewer their prior decision was incorrect. They can provide a veteran an extra formal hearing before an Veterans Law judge.

A New York veteran disability lawyer can give you the personalized attention your claim requires. They also have a wealth of experience dealing with VA disability claims, and they are aware of the rules and procedures in detail. Some attorneys are veterans, and therefore are aware of the difficulties faced by disabled veterans. This can create a distinct type of empathy which can improve the outcome of a veterans' disability case.
