Second Chances After VA Denials
Posted by Gregory M. Rada | July 06, 2025 | Firm News
A denied VA claim can feel like the end of the road—but it doesn’t have to be. Many veterans in Florida are surprised to learn that initial denials are common, and that appealing the decision often leads to success when it’s done with strategy, evidence, and the right legal guidance.
At Gregory M. Rada, Attorney at Law, we specialize in helping veterans turn denied claims into approved benefits. Attorney Greg Rada is a veteran himself who founded his practice to create a firm by a veteran, for veterans. He brings over a decade of legal experience, a deep understanding of the VA system, and a personal commitment to helping those who served.
As a trusted Florida veterans disability lawyer, Greg offers more than legal knowledge—he provides direct communication, a personalized approach, and proven results with no fees unless you win.
Why VA Claims Are Denied
The VA denies claims for many reasons, including missing evidence, incorrect filing, or lack of a clear connection between the disability and military service. But a denial doesn’t mean your case is weak. In fact, many valid claims are denied simply because the application lacked sufficient detail or the VA overlooked critical evidence.
Some denials can be appealed with a Higher-Level Review. Others may require a Supplemental Claim with new and relevant evidence. In more challenging cases, we may need to take your appeal to the Board of Veterans’ Appeals (BVA)—or even to the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC). Greg has successfully handled appeals at every level, securing maximum disability benefits for his clients.
How The Appeals Process Works
Every VA appeal starts with understanding why the claim was denied. This is where experience matters. Attorney Greg reviews your case thoroughly, identifying errors, missing documentation, or legal issues that may have led to the denial.
Depending on your situation, our disability lawyer may recommend:
- A Higher-Level Review for a faster decision without submitting new evidence.
- A Supplemental Claim with new evidence to strengthen your case.
- A formal appeal to the BVA for more complicated or disputed cases.
- Litigation at the CAVC, when the VA’s decision violates the law.
Our VA lawyers don’t just refile, hoping for a better outcome. We build a stronger, more strategic case designed to succeed.
The Power Of Veteran-Led Representation
One reason veterans can trust our attorney is because Greg has walked in their boots. He served in the U.S. Air Force from 2002 to 2008 as a C-17 loadmaster, including over 800 combat flying hours in Iraq and Afghanistan. He understands military culture and the personal challenges many veterans face when applying for benefits.
Greg’s veteran-led firm is built around one mission: to make sure other veterans get the benefits they earned. He takes pride in offering direct communication, not layers of staff—and in delivering results through tireless legal advocacy.
