Veteran's Disability Benefits

Identifying the Correct Veteran's Benefits for You

Obtaining money and Veteran's disability benefits from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is not a simple or efficient process. With claim backlogs and almost-automatic denials of initial claims, it will likely take the skill and tenacity of an experience attorney to help you achieve success with your Veteran's benefits claim.

Our Veteran's benefits claims attorneys will sit with you to explain the VA benefits available to you in your situation. In general, you should know that the VA divides veterans with disabilities into two categories: those with disabilities directly related to their service in the armed forces and those with disabilities not related to their service:

  • Service-connected disability: Benefits can be awarded to veterans who are either totally or partially disabled. What are the conditions? Generally, if you were not dishonorably discharged and you have a current medical diagnosis of a disability that we can prove is connected to your time in the service, you will qualify.
  • Non-service-connected disability: To qualify for a non-service-connected pension, you must have served on active duty during a period of war, you must have a total and permanent disability, and you must meet certain financial requirements. We will thoroughly evaluate your situation and analyze our evaluation to determine if you meet all requirements as laid out by the VA.

Collecting Veteran's Disability and Social Security Disability Benefits at the Same Time

If your disability is service-connected, you can collect Veteran's disability benefits from the VA and Social Security Disability benefits from the Social Security Administration (SSA) at the same time and without any reduction in money and benefits. This option is not available to veterans with non-service-connected disabilities.
