Where to find disability Claims help for FREE

Rate this question


Boro

Question

Can anyone direct me to a place where I can get FREE advice or help about disability claims.   Seems like a lot of places lead you on to believe they're going to help until you get to their fee structure.  I am 73, retired, not working, currently getting VA disability but would like help in how I can possibly achieve a 100% rating, and I'm not paying for it.  I just filed for Hypertension righ after President Biden signed the PACT Act.

Anyhow, I'm in southern AZ.  I'll travel somewhere to get my questions answered or do it online or texting.  Whatever works for the person that would give me advice.

A VSO is going to be your best bet, they are usually local. DAV, VFW, Amer Legion, etc. There are some Facebook groups that good as well, I moderate or help out in a few. VA Disability Q/A is a good one. There is also Reddit, but that is a bit 'wild west' with a lot of complaining- justified and not, and it gets kinda toxic in some of the areas, so, googling for that would be at your own risk.

(I AM NOT A RATER- I work the claims BEFORE they are rated, annotating medical evidence in your records, VA and Legal documents,  and DA/DD forms- basically a paralegal/vso/etc except that I also evaluate your records based on Caluza and try to justify and schedule the exams that you go to based on whether or not your records have enough in them to warrant those)

You can try your local county veterans service office. At the same time, you can ask just about any questions here on Hadit.com and you can research some topics already posted here. The internet could be a wealth of information and don’t forget to search the BVA search decision site and the CAVC search decision site.

- Board of Veterans' Appeals | U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Search Results (usa.gov)

USCAVC: Search

My intentions are to help, my advice maybe wrong, be your own advocate and know what is in your C-File and the 38 CFR that governs your disabilities and conditions.

Do your own homework. No one knows the veteran’s symptoms like the veteran. Never Give Up.

I do not give my consent for anyone to view my personal VA records.

You stated that you are receiving benefits. Can you post what your percentage is? Also can you post what you are serviced connected for?

When was the last time you have asked for an increase?

What serviced connected disabilities that you have caused another condition?
