More Than Half of Denials in Veterans Benefits Claims May Be Incorrect According to Study

According to an article published by Rick May at airforcetimes.com, An independent study by the National Center for Policy Analysis released in December reported that almost one-third of VA claims are denied and that over half of those denials are made in error.  The Veterans Affairs Department has stated that it disagrees with this study.

If the results of this study are correct, it is especially concerning given that the VA reports that only ten percent of veterans who received denials filed a notice of disagreement this past year.  If the decisions are erroneous and few veterans are contesting the decisions, then many veterans are not receiving benefits to which they are entitled for their service to our county.

Perkins Studdard is proud to be able to offer assistance to veterans whose claims for veterans benefits have been denied.  Travis Studdard and Jason Perkins are both accredited to represent veterans and prosecute claims for veterans’ benefits before the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).  If you or someone you know has applied for veterans benefits and been denied, please feel free to contact us for a free consultation by filling out the “Need Help” form or calling the phone number on the right side of this page.

The care, knowledge and professionalism shown by Jason and Tina of Perkins Studdard were beyond reproach. I was informed and updated through every phase of the process and the overall outcome was to my advantage. I highly recommend that if you ever have the need for a workman's comp or VA compensation attorney, Perkins Studdard are the ones that you need to call hands down. True concerned knowledgeable professionals.S Oz

I cant thank the office of Perkins Studdard enough for helping me get through what I thought would be a stressful situation. Let me just say if you have any questions or doubt about what to do or if you need an attorney please give Perkins Studdard a phone call. They were able to set my mind at ease from the beginning and took a weight off my shoulders when I knew what my options were. They've assisted me every step of the way and have touched base with me through the entire process. I really can't think them enough for helping me get through a major bump in the road and I'm truly thankful for the work Mr. Perkins and everyone at Perkins Studdard put in for me. I'm urging you to give them a call if you find yourself in a similar situation. It's great to know you're in the hands of people that truly care about what's best for you and lay out and explain all of your different options with careful detail.Matt Chastain
I had an excellent experience working with Jason Perkins at Perkins & Studdard on my workers’ compensation case. Jason was professional, patient, and truly cared about helping me. He made sure I understood every step of the process and worked hard to get me a great settlement. I’m very thankful for everything he did for me. If you need a workers’ comp lawyer, I highly recommend Jason Perkins and the team at Perkins & Studdard — they really go above and beyond for their clients!Cosmic Energy
Amazing work by an amazing firm. Mr. Studdard has personally explained to me what is going on with my claim and how he will move forward on getting things done. He has always been available to speak. Jessica Hyatt is also a pleasure to work by keeping me up to date on the claim and also letting me know what is needed from me. This firm is professional, effective and definitely client friendly.Richard Moreno
I highly recommend this law firm it’s truly been a blessing to me and my family . The attorneys treated me very well very respectful they listen to me. They understood how important this was to our family. They answer all our questions they return calls to us. They explained everything in detail to us.I know that it was because of the law firm that we received a quick decision from the VA which our claim was granted.Tanya Henderson,Hawkins,Wilson
I highly recommend Jason and his staff. His professionalism and experience proved to be very valuable in helping my case. He is very knowledgeable in his field of work.Eric Bowles
Travis has an amazing team, when I hit a brick wall with my case, he immidiatly gets on board to get to the finish line. 80% to TDIU in about 3 months. Additionally, working with Jessica has been an absolute pleasure, she is a strong part of their entire team. I would recommend them to everyone I know!!Jesse
I had a wonderful experience with them. And they selected my case . I would definitely recommend them.Martha Brooks
What can I say about Travis and Jessica besides thank you from the bottom of my heart. You two worked hard for me. I had no clue when it came to the VA and was about ready to just give up, but with your help and support we made it to the finish line. Yes, it took a couple of years, but it was worth it in the end. If anyone is looking for help with working with the VA these are the people that can do it for you. The VA tried to pull a fast one on me, but Travis was faster and called them on it and they backed down. Thank you both again for everything you did for me and thank you for what you do for all veterans everywhere.Tony Butts
