Jan Dils, Attorneys at Law / North Carolina Veterans’ Disability Benefits Lawyers

The experienced veterans’ disability benefits lawyers at Jan Dils, Attorneys at Law, help veterans and their families obtain the benefits they are entitled to receive from a grateful nation. The firm won’t take no for an answer.

The veterans’ disability benefits law firm provides guidance and representation to veterans of the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines, and it has worked with veterans of Vietnam, the Gulf War and combat in southwest Asia and Afghanistan in overcoming the many roadblocks and complications involved in the complicated veterans’ benefits system.

West Virginia veterans can be served from the law firm’s offices in Parkersburg, Charleston, Huntington, Logan and Beckley, while North Carolina veterans and South Carolina veterans can visit the firm’s office in Charlotte, N.C. In many cases, work can be accomplished by talking on the telephone or exchanging documents by mail or Internet.

The firm’s West Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina veterans’ disability benefits attorneys assist veterans filing claims for:

• Disability compensation: These are tax-free payments for disabilities related to injuries or diseases that were developed during active military service or aggravated by military service.
• Unemployment claims: Veterans who are unable to maintain gainful employment as a result of a service-connected disability may be eligible to receive increased benefits.
• Dependents indemnity claims: Eligible survivors, such as spouses and children, may receive benefits if their loved one died on active duty, inactive duty while training, or from a service-related injury or disease.
• Traumatic brain injury: Like a concussion, this injury can result from blasts (such as those caused by improvised explosive devices, or IEDs), falls, bullets, assaults, explosions and motor vehicle crashes. Symptoms include amnesia or extended periods of unconsciousness and can be similar to post-traumatic stress disorder.
• Post-traumatic stress disorder: Also called PTSD, shell shock or battle fatigue, this is the most prevalent mental health disorder from combat, leaving veterans and survivors of serious accidents, terrorist attacks or physical and sexual assaults with feelings of intense fear, anxiety or helplessness.
• Toxic chemical exposure: The VA compensates veterans with diseases caused by exposure to toxic chemicals or herbicides. Diseases associated with veterans’ exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam include peripheral neuropathy, diabetes and different forms of cancer. Gulf War veterans and those returning from combat in Iraq, southwest Asia or Afghanistan who suffer from undiagnosed illnesses may also receive benefits.
• Worsening existing disability: Even if you had a pre-existing injury or disease, you may be eligible to receive disability benefits if your military service aggravated the condition.

Veterans can appeal a disability decision if they were denied benefits or given a disability rating that is less severe than they believe it actually is. A West Virginia, North Carolina or South Carolina disability benefits lawyer from Jan Dils, Attorneys at Law, can help veterans at all stages of the process, including appeals at the local Veterans Administration (VA) office, Board of Veterans’ Affairs and U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans’ Affairs.

As part of its personalized service, Jan Dils, Attorneys at Law, offers fee arrangements in which it does not charge veterans unless the firm is successful in obtaining disability benefits.
