Choosing a VA Disability Attorney Means Learning What Questions to Ask
Tbird posted a topic in VA Disability Claims Articles and VA News,
Choosing a VA Disability Attorney Means Learning What Questions to Ask. Chris Attig - Veterans Law Blog
<br style="color:#000000; text-align:start">How to Hire an Attorney For Your VA Claim or Appeal Free Guidebook available on the Veterans Law Blog
I got an email the other day from a Veteran. It had 2 or 3 sentences about his claim, and then closed at the end: “Please call me. So-and-so told me you were the best and I want your help.”
While I appreciate the compliments, I shudder a little at emails like this. For 2 reasons.
First, I get a lot of emails like this. And while I diligently represent my clients – I often tell them we will pursue their claim until we have no more appeals or until we win – I am most assuredly not the best.
There are a LOT of damn good VA Disability attorneys out there. (Most, if not all, of the best are members of the National Organization of Veterans Advocates…read about one of them, here)
Second, I don’t want Veterans to choose their attorney based on who their friend thought was the best. I want Veterans to choose the VA Disability attorney who is BEST for their case.
In some situations, that may be the Attig Law Firm.
But it may also be be Hill and Ponton, or Chisholm-Kilpatrick, or Bergman Moore. Or any one of the dozens of other attorneys who have made the representation of Veterans their professional life’s work.
There are hundreds of attorneys that are out there representing Veterans, and I’m here to tell you that who is best for your friend’s case may not be the best for your case.
How do you Find the Best VA Disability Attorney for your Claim?
First, you have to answer the question: do you NEED an attorney?
Some of you don’t...-

Thanks Berta for your help. I did receive my 100% today for my IU claim on 6/20/2018. It only took 64 days to complete and it is p&t. Thanks for your words of wisdom.

Just got another letter from the VA stating: " We have requested copies of your disability medical records from Social Security. It may take several months to receive a response."
Anyone know of a faster way then wait another several months? I never saw anyone at Social Security. All I did was send in my VA records which showed I was 80% service connected and they awarded me SS disability. I have now hired a lawyer to see why I was given 30 % PTSD, I don't work, have not worked from 2004. Anyone think or know how to get SS to mail this stuff to the VA. I just spoke to the SS national number, lady said it would take that long. Thanks
