Appeal

If a veteran is dissatisfied with a decision taken by the judge, they could decide to file a Supplemental Claim. In this time a senior reviewer looks over all the evidence you submitted for a decision in order to determine whether there was a mistake. During this time, veterans may arrange a meeting with a senior reviewer.

This is a formal procedure which involves an appearance before the Board of Veterans Appeals. Your New York veteran disability attorney will work with a decision review officer and a judge to ensure that all arguments and evidence are well-argued and presented in front of the board member.

Higher-Level Reviews

Since February 2019, thanks to the VA Appeals Modernization Act - Veterans have three options in the event of disagreement with the original decision made on their claim. Veterans can choose between a Higher Level Review or a Board Appeal. Berry Law Firm will determine the best option for each Veteran's particular situation.

Using the Higher-Level Review appeal allows the Veteran to request a fresh look at their case by a knowledgeable VA Claims Adjudicator who didn't take part in the initial decision. The Veteran may also request a confidential discussion with the senior adjudicator to discuss their case.

In some cases, the VA may have incorrectly denied a disability claim or under-rated the severity of a condition (grant 30 percent for PTSD when they should have awarded 50 percent). Other times, the Veteran might have evidence that the original decision did not take into account. It is important that Veterans have an experienced lawyer to guide them through the procedure.

The lawyers at Berry Law Firm understand the details of the current VA appeals and claims procedures. They will make sure that your claim is in line with the standards for submission required by the VA and that your claim is presented in a clear, complete way. They will also be able to take your case to the Board of Veterans' Appeals, if necessary.

Legacy Reviews

Medical Evidence
