VA PTSD Lawyer Pennsylvania

Post-traumatic stress is a mental health condition that can qualify for VA disability benefits if symptoms impact your ability to work in a meaningful way. PTSD can present in many ways. The most common symptoms are reliving the traumatic event (flashbacks), nightmares, anxiety, angry outbursts, and other emotional and behavioral challenges.

To file a VA PTSD claim, you must prove that you experienced something during your military service that is causing your PTSD symptoms. Medical professionals call it an in-service stressor event, a situation that was incredibly horrific, scary, or life-threatening.

Our Pennsylvania VA PTSD lawyer will help you connect your condition to your service. Building a case can be complicated because many PTSD-inducing incidents are not documented in service records. Each person reacts to experiences differently, and as your legal representative, it is our job to get your voice heard. We understand how difficult it can be to talk about traumatic events. You will be treated with compassion, dignity, and respect as you detail your story.

The next hurdle is getting an official diagnosis. The VA may schedule a Compensation and Pension (C&P) exam with a psychologist. After reviewing the severity of your symptoms and how they are affecting your life, the VA will issue a rating that determines the amount of benefits you receive. Our attorney will recommend whether visiting an independent psychiatrist would be beneficial in securing an accurate rating.

Our attorney has in-depth knowledge of the VA disability claims process and does everything possible to expedite an approval. We guide you through every step, connecting you with the right doctors to get a comprehensive understanding of your condition. In the event the VA denies your claim or issues a rating that is well below your symptoms, our attorney can file an appeal on your behalf, advocating for the full financial support you deserve.

Why Experience Matters In VA PTSD Claims

Mental disorders are more challenging to get approved than physical disabilities because there is a lack of proof, and they can be interconnected with other issues. PTSD symptoms can make you feel out of control, and many people are diagnosed with other disorders like OCD to create a sense of order. Additionally, some injuries can exacerbate PTSD symptoms, particularly TBIs. Depending on your specific situation, our lawyer can advise whether your PTSD should be filed as a secondary condition. We specialize in handling disability claims for service-connected psychiatric disorders, so you can trust that your case is in the right hands.
