Our Approach
Our Approach
We do things slightly different than other advocacy groups in that we ask you to take control of your claim. We have numerous claims going simultaneously at any time and do not have the resources to do all of the work for you. It can be a long process but we are here to guide you through it all and make sure that your claim is successful.
Our Story
Meet the Team
We do this not for pay, but because we feel every veteran deserves a little help in the right direction. Thank you for your service to our country, we look forward to working with you and helping you get the benefits you deserve.

We have been doing claims work for veterans for more than 25 years, being involved in all kinds of claims and in all kinds of situations with the VA. From healthcare issues to compensation claims issues. We want to help!

Donate
We love what we do, but it can sometimes drain finances. With your contribution, we can pay for things like fuel when driving to a C&P exam, Dr's visits, etc. In the past we have had donations such as furniture, clothes, cars; All veterans and their claims are not the same, some have other needs. We do the best we can with what we have. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
