VA Claims Are Not Just About Forms

Posted by Gregory M. Rada | July 06, 2025 | Firm News

When it comes to filing for VA disability compensation, it’s easy to think success hinges on simply submitting the right paperwork. But for many veterans, especially those in Virginia, the process is far more complicated—and far more personal—than forms and deadlines. Behind every VA claim is a story of service, injury, and the right to be heard.

Attorney Gregory M. Rada knows this firsthand. He is a veteran himself and has been representing his fellow veterans before the VA since 2012. Greg has dedicated his career to helping veterans nationwide navigate a bureaucratic system that often overlooks the very people it was designed to serve. As a trusted Virginia veterans disability lawyer, he brings deep experience, legal knowledge, and lived military service to every case.

The Story Behind The Paperwork

Filing a VA claim is rarely a simple task. It may start with filling out forms—but the real work lies in translating detailed medical histories, duty-related trauma, and decades-old service records into a compelling legal argument. For many veterans, this means revisiting painful memories or confronting the reality of how their service changed their lives.

Our VA-accredited lawyer understands how invisible injuries like PTSD or chronic pain can be just as disabling as physical wounds—and how hard it can be to prove them.

Strategy Matters More Than Speed

One of the most common misconceptions among veterans is that filing quickly equals getting paid quickly. In reality, a strategic, well-documented claim or appeal is far more effective than a rushed submission. This is especially true in challenging cases involving total disability based on individual unemployability (TDIU), service connection disputes, or denials that need to be appealed.

Greg has successfully handled hundreds of such cases, guiding veterans through every level of the VA process—from Regional Offices across the country to the Board of Veterans’ Appeals (BVA) and the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC). His focused practice allows him to see issues other attorneys might miss, and to position a case for success even after initial denial.

A Veteran’s Voice In The Legal System

What makes our law firm different isn’t just experience—it’s empathy. Veterans often tell us that working with Greg feels different because he speaks their language and understands the culture of military service. He started his firm specifically so veterans could have access to a lawyer who is one of them, not just someone who studied the law.

This connection translates into better representation. Greg takes the time to truly understand each veteran’s experience and how it intersects with VA regulations. He fights not just for benefits, but for validation—something that can mean just as much.

You Deserve More Than A Form

VA claims are not just about submitting forms—they’re about securing justice. When you work with Gregory M. Rada, Attorney at Law, you get more than legal help. You get a fellow veteran in your corner who knows how to fight and win. Greg has spent more than a decade focused exclusively on VA disability compensation, pension, and survivor benefits. With hundreds of successful appeals behind him, he offers the knowledge and persistence necessary to navigate even the most difficult cases.
