What is a VA Disability?
The disability rating determines the amount of monthly compensation that is paid to veterans with disabilities that are related to service. This rating is based on the severity of the illness or injury and can be as low as 0% and up to 100% in 10% increments (e.g., 20 percent, 30%, etc.). The compensation is tax-free and provides a basic income to the disabled veteran and their family.
The VA also has other programs that provide additional compensation such as individual unemployment, auto allowance, clothing allowance, and prestabilization and hospitalization benefits. These are in addition to basic disability compensation.
The Social Security Administration also gives veterans special credits that they can use to increase their lifetime earnings to qualify for retirement or disability benefits. These credits are referred to as "credit for service."
Code of Federal Regulations lists many of the conditions which allow veterans to be eligible for disability compensation. However, a few of these conditions require an expert opinion. An experienced veteran lawyer can assist clients in obtaining this opinion and provide the evidence required to prove the claim for disability benefits.

How do I submit a claim?
Veterans need to first collect the medical evidence that proves their disability. This includes X-rays and doctor's reports or other documentation relevant to their health. It is important to provide these records to VA. If a veteran doesn't have these documents and the VA should be notified by the applicant (or their VSO).
The next step is to make an intent to file. This form lets the VA examine your claim even before you have the needed information and medical records. The form also keeps the date of effective compensation benefits in case you succeed in your claim.
The VA will schedule your medical exam once all of the details have been received. This will depend on the quantity and type of disability you claim. Don't miss this exam because it could delay the process of submitting your claim.
The VA will send you a decision-making package after the tests have been completed. If the VA refuses to accept your claim, you have a year from the date of the letter to request a higher-level review.
A lawyer can help you in this situation. VA-accredited lawyers can now be involved in the appeals from the start, which is a huge benefit for those who are seeking disability benefits.
How do I appeal a denial?
Denial of veterans disability benefits can be a frustrating experience. Fortunately the VA has an appeals procedure for these decisions. The first step is to file a Notice of Disagreement with the VA regional office which sent you the Rating Decision. In your notice of disagreement, you must tell the VA why you are not happy with their decision. You don't have to list all the reasons, but you should mention everything you disagree with.
You must also request your C-file, or claims file, to see what evidence the VA used to make their decision. Sometimes there are gaps or insufficient records. This can lead to a mistake in the rating.
When you file your NOD, you'll be asked to select whether you want your case reviewed by an Board of Veterans Appeals or a Decision Review officer. Generally speaking, you will be more likely to have success with a DRO review than with the BVA.
You can request a private hearing with a senior rating expert through the process of a DRO review. The DRO will conduct a review of your claim on an "de de novo" basis, which means that they don't give deference the previous decision. This usually results in a totally new Rating Decision. Alternatively, you can choose to have your claim reviewed by the BVA in Washington. This is the most lengthy appeals process, and it could take up to three years to reach an appeal to be heard.
How much can an attorney charge?
A lawyer may charge a fee to help you appeal the VA decision on a disability claim. The law currently does not permit lawyers to charge fees for assistance with a claim in the beginning. The fee is only due when the lawyer wins your case or increases your benefits via an appeal. Typically, these fees will be paid out of any lump-sum payments you get from the VA.
Veterans can search the VA's database of attorneys accredited by the VA or claim agents to locate accredited representatives. These people are accredited by the Department of Veterans Affairs and are able to represent veterans, service members or their dependents in a wide range of matters including pension claims and disability compensation claims.
Most veterans' disability advocates are paid on the basis of a contingent. This means that they are only paid if they prevail in the appeal of the client and receive back payments from the VA. The amount of backpay that is paid can vary but can be as high as 20 percent of the claimant's past due benefits.
In rare cases, an agent or lawyer might choose to charge an hourly rate. But, this isn't common for two reasons. These issues can take a long time to be resolved. In addition, many veterans and their families can't afford an hourly rate.
