The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) mission is “[to] care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan by serving and honoring the men and women who are America’s veterans.” As a veteran owned firm, we understand the sacrifices veterans make for this country and are committed to ensuring the VA fulfills its mission.
To be eligible to receive compensation benefits your disability must be service connected. In addition, you must have been separated or discharged under other than dishonorable conditions.
To receive disability compensation, the disability must be the result of an injury or disease that was incurred or aggravated while on active duty or while on active duty for training; or from an injury, heart attack, or stroke that occurred during inactive duty training. A disability can apply to a physical or mental health condition.
A surviving spouse of a service member who died while on active duty, active duty for training, or inactive duty for training may be eligible for Dependency and Indemnity Compensation. Children, not included in the surviving spouse's Dependency and Indemnity Compensation may be eligible.
Special Monthly Compensation may be awarded to a veteran who, as a result of military service, incurred the loss or the loss of use of specific organs or extremities.
