We Provide Comprehensive Services to Illinois Veterans

Recovering VA disability benefits in Chicago Heights starts with completing Form 21-526. This is where a strong claim starts. The single best thing you can do to protect your rights and get your benefits is to make sure that this form is filled out with 100 percent accuracy and with all required supporting documentation. Your medical records, both civilian and military, must be included and properly assembled. This is a complicated task. As such, it is very strongly recommended that you seek professional assistance from an Illinois veterans benefits lawyer before sending in your initial application. Far too many veterans have their claim rejected or a disability rating assigned that is too low. You need a strong initial application. From there, if the VA will not pay you every dollar you deserve, our legal team is ready to fight for your rights on appeal. We are prepared to take your claim as far as it needs to go to get you the benefits that you earned serving the United States.
