VA admits CUE (Clear and Unmistakable Error) Regarding Iraq Veteran's Brain Injury Claim
Our office worked with an Iraq War veteran to prove that the VA had erroneously denied his 2006 claim for TBI. CUE claims are very difficult to prove; however, our office was able to show that the VA applied the wrong standard to the original brain injury claim, and thus over ten years of back benefits were awarded to the veteran.

By Fighting Discharge-Related Bars to VA Benefits: We Can Help Change Veterans' Lives
Over the past five years, our office has helped multiple Veterans demonstrate that a "bad paper" discharge should not bar the VA benefits they earned through service. In these cases, our office collects and submits evidence from other service members, hearing transcripts, and other pre-discharge legal documents, and all relevant service and post-service medical records to demonstrate that the veteran qualifies for benefits under one of the applicable exemptions. Recently, our office won approximately 18 years of back benefits and 100 percent service connection for a veteran who had previously been unhoused and without medical services despite severe disabilities.
