GET STARTED WITH YOUR INITIAL VA DISABILITY CLAIM
To receive benefits for any service-related disability, you must submit an application for benefits, which is called filing a claim. Our experienced team is committed to assisting veterans at all stages of the VA disability process, including filing initial claims at no cost to you. This process includes:
- Providing a comprehensive evaluation of your entitlement to any VA benefits;
- Filling an initial claim on your behalf;
- Responding to VCAA letters and other VA requests for information;
- Preparing you for the Comp & Pen exam process; and
- Filing your appeal (if necessary).
If you win your initial claims, there is no fee for our services. Contact us today to get the help you deserve!
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOU FILE YOUR INITIAL VA DISABILITY CLAIM?
After you file, the VA has a duty to assist you in developing your claim for benefits. This duty could involve the VA obtaining your service records, medical records, and social security records. Sometimes the duty to assist includes providing you with a medical examination called a Comp & Pen exam. You typically have to submit a certain amount of evidence to trigger the VA’s duty to provide you with a Comp & Pen exam, which is discussed here.
While working on your claim, the VA may send you a letter asking for additional evidence. This is called a VCAA Letter. Be sure to respond to these letters, as the VA may automatically deny your claim if you don’t!
After filing a claim, you should receive a decision from the VA within about 3-8 months, depending on your VA Regional Office. This decision is called a Rating Decision. A Rating Decision will include a breakdown of each disability decided, a summary of the evidence considered and applicable laws, and identification of findings favorable to the veteran.
AFTER RECEIVING A RATING DECISION
Unfortunately, far too many veterans wait several months only to receive a denial of their initial claim. Even if the VA grants service connection for a disability, it often unfairly assigns the wrong rating or effective date. At Rob Levine & Associates, our team is dedicated to get the job done for you. Even if your initial claims are denied, our experienced attorneys will create a unique game plan for winning your appeal.
If you have received a recent Rating Decision or need to get started by filing claims, contact us today for a free case evaluation! We are ready to fight the VA and secure the benefits you deserve.
