The Role of a Veteran Law Attorney

We believe in keeping things simple, honest, and personal. We won't flood your inbox with marketing emails, we don't sell your information, and you'll work directly with the attorney handling your case—not a revolving door of staff members.

We also believe you should keep as much of your hard-earned benefits as possible. That's why our fees are lower than those of many other boutique law firms. After all, you earned these benefits. We didn't.

We work on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you don't pay us unless we win. Our fee is a one-time percentage of the retroactive benefits you receive from the claims or appeals we handle. No monthly fees and no percentage of your future disability payments.

Just straightforward representation, personal attention, and a commitment to getting the VA to make the right decision.

Filing a VA disability claim might seem straightforward, but navigating the VA's complicated laws, regulations, and appeals process is another story. A successful claim often requires more than a diagnosis and a connection to military service. It requires understanding what the VA is legally obligated to consider, recognizing when it gets something wrong, and knowing how to challenge those mistakes.

That's where an experienced Veterans Affairs attorney can make a difference.

At Anderson & Graham, we do more than submit paperwork and wait for a decision. We review your claims history, examine medical and military records, identify favorable evidence, and develop legal arguments tailored to your circumstances. We look for issues that may have been overlooked, including secondary disabilities, inadequate VA examinations, incorrect disability ratings, and earlier effective dates.

We Know What to Look For

Not every VA error is obvious. Sometimes the VA relies on a medical examination that doesn't adequately address the evidence. Sometimes it overlooks a disability reasonably raised by the record. And sometimes it grants a claim but assigns an effective date years later than the law allows.

Our job is to recognize those issues and determine the best way to address them.

We also know that not every claim needs another medical opinion, another examination, or another appeal. Sometimes the evidence already supports a favorable decision, and the VA simply hasn't applied the law correctly.

We Handle the Legal Work So You Don't Have To

Once we agree on a case strategy, we handle the claims and appeals within the scope of our representation, communicate with the VA, review decisions as they're issued, and advise you on the next steps.

You'll work directly with your attorney, and we'll explain our recommendations in plain English. You shouldn't need a law degree to understand what's happening with your own claim.
