Choosing to serve your country in the military is a noble occupation. However, the sad truth is that Veterans often find it difficult to get the support they need after leaving the service. This is especially true when it comes to their medical care and putting in claims for disability benefits from the VA. Veterans frequently aren't given any guidance in how to navigate this process, resulting in delays and denials, until after years of effort, it's tempting to simply give up. But you deserve your benefits, and if you were injured in the service, you deserve to be compensated accordingly.
