We understand the unique challenges veterans face when seeking the benefits they rightfully deserve, and we are committed to ensuring their voices are heard and their rights are protected.

Our Mission

Our mission is to assist veterans and their families in securing the maximum benefits available through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). We specialize in VA appeals representation, helping veterans appeal denied claims and seek increased ratings. We aim to provide personalized, expert guidance and advocacy to each veteran we serve, ensuring they receive the benefits they have earned through their service.

Albert L. Thombs Jr., our CEO, is a non-attorney accredited agent (Accreditation #45147) certified by the Department of Veterans Affairs. With a deep commitment to veteran advocacy, Albert leads our team with a passion for helping veterans overcome the bureaucratic hurdles of the VA benefits system.

Evidence-Based Firm

At The VA Disability Advocate, LLC, we are committed to an evidence-based approach in handling veterans' claims. This means that we do not file claims or appeals without substantial medical evidence supporting the veteran's in-service injury or illness. We emphasize the importance of having medical documentation that clearly establishes the connection between the veteran's service and their current health condition.

 

Therefore, we require veterans to seek ongoing medical care and keep their primary doctor informed of any changes in their health. This ensures that all claims are thoroughly supported by up-to-date and accurate medical records, significantly increasing the likelihood of a successful outcome. By adhering to this rigorous standard, we can effectively advocate for the maximum benefits our veterans are entitled to.

 

What Does Being an Evidence-Based Firm Mean?

Being an evidence-based firm means that every step we take in advocating for our veterans is grounded in factual, verifiable information. We meticulously gather and organize all pertinent evidence to support each claim. This includes medical records, service documents, expert opinions, and personal statements. Our focus is on presenting a compelling case that clearly demonstrates the veteran’s entitlement to benefits.

 

Our Commitment to You

While we cannot guarantee that every veteran will achieve a 100% disability rating, we are steadfast in our promise to help veterans achieve the maximum benefit amount they are entitled to. Our approach ensures that every claim is backed by robust evidence, increasing the likelihood of a favorable outcome.
