Pending Legislation To Help Veterans Receive Benefits for Sexual Assault

The House of Representatives recently passed a bill to attempt to make it simpler for veterans to prove sexual assault claims.  The bill is name for Ruth Moore, a Navy veteran who spent 23 years pursuing her claim for disability compensation benefits as a result of sexual assault.

Kellie Lunney’s Article

There is an excellent article by Kellie Lunney on the pending legislation that notes that more than 85,000 men and women received outpatient treatment in 2012 for conditions related to military sexual trauma.  Since many incidents of sexual assault are not immediately reported, they may not appear in a veteran’s service record.  This makes the evidentiary requirements for proving sexual assault claims extremely important.  The House bill and a bill currently pending in the Senate seek to relax the VA’s current evidentiary standards to place them more in line with the recently amended evidentiary standards for PTSD claims.

Travis Studdard is an outstanding attorney. I had given up on my VA claim over ten years go. Travis revived my claim and was able to get me secondary service connection for sleep apnea (secondary to residuals of septoplasty). I am thrilled at the results. Travis was able to expertly navigate the VA system to reach a positive result. I very, very highly recommend Perkins Studdard.Ilya Poluektov
