Veterans Disability Benefits

Disabled U.S. Military who are disabled due to injuries or diseases from active-duty service may be eligible for disabled veterans benefits from the VA. If you have been denied compensation and other benefits from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the attorneys at Gardberg & Clausen, P.C. can help you appeal your claim so that you can recover the compensation to which you are entitled.

As a veteran, you have certain benefits you earned as a result of your service. Survivors and dependents of veterans may also have benefits available; however, these benefits are there for you only if you apply for them.

We would like to evaluate your claim for the following types of cases:

Service connected disability
Non service connected pension
DIC: Dependency and Indemnity Compensation payable to surviving spouses, children, and dependent parents for service-connected death
TDIU Total Disability Individual Unemployability
Re-opening claims for increase in service connected disability

Of the 25 million veterans currently alive, nearly three of every four served during a war or an official period of hostility. About a quarter of the nation's population -- approximately 70 million people -- are potentially eligible for VA benefits and services because they are veterans, family members or survivors of veterans

If you have been denied veterans benefits, you may want to pursue your right to appeal. You must appeal your VA benefits decision in a timely manner. If you are seeking to appeal a decision of the Department of Veterans Affairs, Gardberg & Clausen, P.C. can help.
