Do I Need a Lawyer To File For VA Disability Claim?

Do I Need a Lawyer To File For VA Disability Claim

Many people looking to file a claim for the Camp Lejeune toxic water incident might be wondering whether or not to use a lawyer. Will a lawyer be able to guide them in the right direction during the claim process? A lawyer can greatly benefit those needing to file for a VA disability claim.

It’s best to find the right lawyer for you by searching lawyers in your area, asking about the experience they’ve had handling a VA claim case, and shopping around to compare prices. If you want to learn more about why so many people are looking for lawyers due to the Camp Lejeune incident, read more here. Then, read on below to see why having a lawyer can make a huge difference when filing your VA disability claim.

Help You With Paperwork

Filing a VA disability claim is never easy. There are mountains of paperwork that you need to turn in to the VA, including medical paperwork, statements from loved ones about your condition, therapy notes, and much more. Fortunately, you won’t have to worry about what type of paperwork goes into filing a claim.

Instead, your lawyer can file all your paperwork for you, so you can focus on what matters most – healing. Your lawyer will understand the timeline to file your disability claim and can help you get prepared. The sooner you prepare your paperwork, the faster your lawyer can take over the process of filing a claim.

Gather Evidence For You

Some lawyers will also gather evidence to help file your lawsuit. Evidence can also include eyewitness testimony, pictures, and other relevant items of interest. If you were a victim of the Camp Lejeune toxic water scandal, you will need to prove that you consumed the toxic water for 30 days or more between 1953 and 1987.

This type of evidence can be difficult to come across. However, your lawyer will determine the best way to gather evidence to make your case all the more strong to file for a VA disability claim. Your lawyer will fight on your behalf, so you can enjoy the new PACT act’s policy of allowing civilians to file for VA disability due to toxic circumstances.

Help You File a Lawsuit

The PACT act also allows people to sue the federal government and earn more compensation this way. Keep in mind that the higher your percentage disability rating, the more your final damages settlement will be offset. Nevertheless, it’s important to get the help of a lawyer when filing a lawsuit. Lawsuits are time-consuming, can be frustrating, and might be done in vain without the help of a trained lawyer.

Only Gets Paid if You Do

Most lawyers will only get paid if you do. If you are granted VA disability benefits, most lawyers will take a percentage per month until their fee is paid. They might also take a portion of your settlement money. However, these fees are a small price to pay for the lifetime of money you can receive to compensate for your pain and suffering due to Camp Lejeune’s toxic water exposure.
