The Basics: Types of Veterans Disability Benefits Claims Worldwide

Veterans Disability Benefits Claims are typically classified into three categories:

2. Non-service connected pension claims: These are for wartime veterans with low income and are not able to work or are 65 years or older.
3. Special monthly compensation claims: This is for veterans who have severe disabilities or have lost the use of particular organs or limbs.

While these processes can seem daunting, you don’t have to handle them alone. Hiring a lawyer can help simplify the process and ensure that your claim has the best chance of success. Here are a few scenarios where you might consider hiring a lawyer:

1. Denied claims: If you’ve submitted a claim and it was denied, a lawyer can help you understand why and assist in appealing the decision.
2. Difficulty in gathering evidence: Lawyers are skilled in gathering necessary evidence to support your claim, such as medical records and service documents.
