VA Disability Ratings & Appeals are at the core of a veteran’s access to financial stability, medical care, and long-term benefits. A veteran’s disability rating determines monthly compensation, eligibility for critical programs, and recognition of how service-connected conditions impact daily life. Unfortunately, the VA often underrates conditions, denies claims without proper justification, or overlooks key evidence—including medical records, functional limitations, and the combined effects of multiple disabilities.
Many veterans must navigate the appeals process to correct errors in their initial decision. This may involve filing a Higher-Level Review, submitting a Supplemental Claim with new evidence, or appealing directly to the Board of Veterans’ Appeals (BVA). Each path requires different strategies, deadlines, and evidentiary standards. Conditions such as PTSD, TBI, chronic pain, orthopedic injuries, migraines, respiratory issues, and gastrointestinal disorders are frequently underrated or denied entirely, despite clear impacts on a veteran’s daily functioning and employability.
Krause Law helps veterans challenge unfair rating decisions, strengthen medical evidence, and pursue the highest disability rating supported by law. Whether you need assistance increasing a rating, service-connecting a condition, or appealing a denial, our firm is committed to ensuring your service and sacrifice are fully recognized through the benefits you earned.
