VA Appeals and Disability Benefits

The firm's sole focus is on VA Appeals. They assist veterans who have been denied service-connection for their disabilities or who have been granted an unfairly low rating. Attorney Daniel Shawl and Staff Attorney Julius Pulley, also a Navy veteran, bring personal experience and professional expertise to every case. They handle appeals at all levels, from the Regional Office to the Board of Veterans' Appeals and the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. They meticulously review service medical records, gather necessary evidence, and present compelling legal arguments to prove that a veteran's current condition is related to their service. Whether it is a combat injury, PTSD, or exposure to hazardous materials, they are relentless in their pursuit of justice.

A Team By Veterans, For Veterans

What sets Military Veterans Appeals apart is their deep personal connection to the military community. Both attorneys are veterans who understand the sacrifice involved in service. They provide a level of empathy and understanding that is rare in the legal field. The firm operates on a contingency basis for appeals, meaning veterans do not pay attorney fees unless the firm wins their case and recovers back pay. They also maintain a network of trusted attorneys for other legal needs, such as estate planning or criminal defense, ensuring that their clients have access to comprehensive legal support. Located on Chester Road in Lansing, the office is a welcoming space where veterans can find the help they need to secure their financial future.
