On this episode of Cases 4 Causes, the VA Guy – Michael Hoffman, a VA disability advocate and attorney from Werner, Hoffman, and Greig, discusses the importance of veterans filing for disability claims related to mental health conditions and physical ailments.
Hoffman emphasizes that veterans often overlook claiming conditions such as headaches and gastrointestinal distress because they assume these are common issues experienced by everyone. However, he explains that these conditions can be worsened or caused by military service, especially in relation to mental health.
Hoffman also highlights the significance of working with a VA-accredited attorney who can navigate the complex VA system and help veterans appeal denied claims or receive appropriate ratings. He also talks about the statute of limitations for filing VA claims and the role of lobbying in advocating for veterans' rights and benefits.
