Veterans Benefits Law Group

At Veterans Benefits Law Group, PLLC, we salute men and women like you who have dedicated their lives to protecting and serving our country. In return for this sacrifice, our country has a duty to provide and care for you when you need it the most. However, if you have a service-related disabling condition, getting the veteran’s disability benefits you’re entitled to can be challenging and frustrating for many applicants.

Step 1
Appealing your VA Disability Denial

First, don’t give up. A denied claim isn’t the end of the road — you have options, and the right one depends on your specific case. Veterans generally have three paths after a denial: requesting a Higher-Level Review, filing a Supplemental Claim with new evidence, or appealing directly to the Board of Veterans’ Appeals. Each comes with its own deadlines, evidence rules, and trade-offs, and choosing the wrong one can cost you months of delay. Before you file anything, talk to us. We’ll review your denial letter, explain which option gives you the strongest path forward, and handle the filing on your behalf.

Step 2
Choose the Type of Appeal

Next, choose the type of appeal. You can request a decision review officer appeal either with or without a hearing. You also have the ability to appeal directly to the Board of Veterans Appeals. If you opt for a decision review officer appeal and do not agree with the outcome, you may still take your case to the Board of Veterans Appeals later.

Step 3
1 Year From the Date of Denial to File an Appeal

Remember, the clock is ticking. You have only one year from the date of denial to file an appeal. It may feel like there are a lot of hoops to jump through just to get an appeal heard if you try to handle it on your own. However, an experienced VA disability attorney can help you prepare your Notice of Disagreement and strengthen your appeal case. We have a track record of handling veterans’ cases and will aggressively work to help you secure the benefits you deserve.

NATIONWIDE

You’ve served your country, and now your life has changed because of it. You deserve the benefits that the federal government is supposed to provide for you, so why has your claim been denied?

It is a hard pill to swallow, but a number of claims are rejected. Bureaucratic red tape is complicated. Not only is there a large volume of information that needs to be submitted, but even small mistakes or discrepancies could be grounds for rejection.

  • “I am writing to express my gratitude and appreciation for all that both of you have done for me. I am thankful that you chose to represent me concerning claims with the VA. Your staff has treated me with respect, understanding, and kindness since day one. Below I would like to provide more details concerning my journey with you and what you have accomplished on my behalf. I have been a Marine for over thirty years and a Marine Corps Veteran for the past twenty-two years. When I exited the Marine Corps in June 2004 my bottom three vertebrae of my lower back were compressed on top of each other, my right shoulder had been torn and required surgery, within my neck one of my vertebrae was completely fractured and a piece of bone the size of a dime remains detached until this day. My hearing diminished and I also had PTSD. I would not find out until twenty-nine years later that I was exposed daily to toxic chemicals at various duty stations which has led me to be diagnosed with P16 squamous cell cancer within my tongue, throat, lymph nodes, two large muscles on each side of my neck and my right tonsil. When I received my final physical test, all except PTSD and the cancer were documented and my VA rating was at ten percent. When exiting the Marine Corps I was ignorant of how the process with the VA worked and for the past twenty-two years I have worked mid-level manager positions that required me to work anywhere between sixty to ninety hours per week, with eighty percent of that time six to seven days per week. When I tried to schedule an appointment, it would be during work hours, and I would have to reschedule or cancel the appointment. I did not accomplish anything toward compensation until 2025 when I scheduled an appointment with Veterans Benefit Law Group, PLLC. Gregory Keenum and Kennedy Burns immediately began to work on my case in October 2025 when I was at twenty percent disability and I am currently at one hundred percent permanent and total disability as of August 2026. Once again, thank you for all your hard work and dedication!”

  • “I had never heard of Veterans Benefits Law Group until I saw their TV commercial. I decided to reach out to Mr. Hall and his team to discuss possible disability VA benefits for myself. Their professional staff was so kind, knowledgeable, attentive and was eager to jump in and get to work on my case. They made the process easier than I expected and were always so pleasant to work with. I was afraid it’d take a couple of years for my case to be settled but I could not have been more pleased with the shorter amount of time it actually took. I was completely satisfied and excited with the final results! I am honored to recommend Veterans Benefits Law Group and their staff to anyone.”

    – John H.
  • “After fighting the VA for 38 years, I decided to hand it over to someone who could fight for me. All those years of stress, worry, running everywhere on God’s planet to be where and when I was supposed to be, all of the paperwork I’ve had to decipher and respond to. Once I hired your firm, it all left me. Going to the C&P exams was the hardest thing I had to do when VBLG took the helm. Thank you for your dedication to veterans and their families. You are the lighthouse that guides one in from a long and dark voyage.”

  • PTSD Secondary Conditions Veterans Should Never Ignore

    Your PTSD rating compensates for what happened to your mind. It does not say anything about what years of hypervigilance have done to your blood pressure, sleep, or stomach. Those effects are separately compensated for, and most veterans never apply for them.…
