If the VA denied your claim for benefits, you are not alone. The veteran advocates at Obi Law Group, PLLC can help you put together a strong case for VA disability benefits. Our team of veterans disability lawyers in Florida, VA practitioners, and accredited VA claims agents know what the VA is looking for. We understand what goes into a successful claim, starting with proving the following to be true:
The VA refers to this as “service
connection,” and without it, the VA will not grant you disability benefits, no matter how severe your condition. For instance, we cannot simply claim that you have hearing loss from your military service. We must be able to establish a nexus or link, between your hearing loss and an “in-service event.” For instance, we might argue that the loud and constant gun blasts to which you were exposed in combat caused your hearing loss.
The evidence we might gather to establish service connection includes your military records, medical history, and test results, as well as personal statements from your doctor or testimony from medical experts.
VA Disability Compensation Levels
Our top priority is always to get you the maximum amount of benefits to which you are rightfully entitled. First, we will help you obtain a grant of VA disability benefits. Next, we will review the VA’s rating decision to ensure you were granted the correct disability rating from the correct effective date. Your VA benefit amount depends on your disability rating, a number assigned by the VA based on the severity of your condition. It can range from 0 to 100 percent, with a 0 percent rating qualifying you only for ancillary benefits such as health care, and not for monthly compensation.
If the VA issued you a rating of 30 percent or above, you are eligible for additional compensation for dependents in your household, such as your spouse, children, or dependent parents. If you have received what you think is an incorrect rating, we may be able to help you file an appeal for an increased VA disability rating.

Veteran’s Aid & Attendance Pension Benefit
This most important benefit is overlooked by many families with Veterans or surviving spouses who need additional funds to help pay for care. Most Veterans who are in need of assistance qualify for this pension if they meet the financial requirements. Aid and Attendance can help pay for care in a nursing home, assisted living facility, adult family home, or at home. We can help you determine if you qualify for the Aid and Attendance pension, what you would need to do to qualify, and if you would be better off applying for Medicaid benefits instead.
