Claims predators are preying on your benefits

Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA), U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs

Claims predators are preying on your benefits with their profit in mind. These companies or individuals may try to charge Veterans or their families a fee for benefits assistance. It is crucial to remember that you should never pay a fee to file an initial claim for benefits or sign any contract agreeing to pay an unaccredited individual/company a percentage or multiple of your benefit award in exchange for help with your VA claim. https://www.va.gov/disability/get-help-filing-claim/

If you seek resources and support for assistance with the VA benefits process, only attorneys, claim agents, and Veterans Service Organization (VSO) representatives accredited by VA may help you with your benefits claim. https://www.va.gov/get-help-from-accredited…/find-rep/
