How to Appeal a VA Disability Denial

Veterans Benefits Lawyer Serving Winston-Salem - Riddle & Riddle

Many claims for veterans benefits are initially denied. In fact, roughly 30 percent of VA disability claims are denied.

If you’ve been denied by the VA, you have options for appeal, and a veterans benefits lawyer with experience in Winston-Salem can help.

We can help you file your appeal with the VA and position your case in the best possible way in order to maximize your chances at approval. Depending on the circumstances of your case, we can also help to increase your VA disability rating.

There are many opportunities to appeal a denial.

After filing a Notice of Disagreement with the VA, you can:

  • Request a review by the Decision Review Officer — A Decision Review Officer (DRO) with the local VA office will review your claim and determine whether or not any mistakes were made in the initial denial. If the decision by the DRO is still not favorable, you have the option to appeal before the Board of Veterans Appeals.
  • Appeal to the Board of Veterans Appeals — Upon initial denial, you have the option to appeal your claim before the Board of Veterans Appeal (BVA). You must file a Substantive Appeal Form (VA Form 9) in order to confirm your intent to appeal before the BVA, and you have 90 days to provide medical evidence and other supporting evidence for your appeal. You have the right to request a hearing with a travel board judge, a video-conference hearing with a member of the BVA, or an in-person hearing in Washington, DC.

A veterans benefits lawyer serving Winston-Salem and the Piedmont Triad can help you determine your best legal options and assist with your VA disability appeal.

Keep in mind that the process of appealing a denial of VA disability can be extremely time-consuming. It can take months, or even years, for the BVA to schedule your hearing and review your case. In these cases, if you are approved for veterans disability, the VA will pay you a lump-sum to make up for the benefits you’ve missed out on.

“By far the best law firm that actually cares about helping veterans.”
