Veterans Disability
Veterans Disability is the compensation that the United States government provides to veterans with disabilities caused by their service in the U.S. Armed Forces. This compensation is designed to provide a level of financial stability and aid as needed for medical and other living costs. To qualify for veterans disability, individuals must have served in the military and have suffered an injury or illness related to their service, such as post -traumatic stress disorder, traumatic brain injury, or any other service-related disability.
The Claims Process
Shook & Stone, a personal injury law firm based in Las Vegas, Nevada, recently launched a Veterans Disability practice. The practice is dedicated to helping veterans with disability claims made under the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).
The key to success in any VA claim is understanding the claims process. To start, it’s important for veterans to understand that they must fill out an application and submit it to the VA. The process can take several months, so patience is key. It’s also important to ensure all pertinent information is accurately included in the application, as this will help speed up the process.
Once an individual’s claim is filed with the VA, a decision will be made on whether or not the claim should be approved. If the claim is approved, the individual will receive a letter from the VA notifying them of their approval. If the claim is denied, however, there are options for appealing the decision.
In cases where veterans need assistance with filing claims or appeals, Shook & Stone’s Veterans Disability practice is available to help. Our experienced team understands the intricacies of veterans disability law and works hard to ensure that veterans are receiving all of the benefits they are entitled to.
