Veteran Receives Disability Benefits for PTSD

Our attorneys are very honored to have the opportunity to represent veterans in their claims for veterans benefits.  In select cases, our attorneys will represent veterans on initial applications for disability benefits at no charge.  Recently, Travis Studdard filed an initial application for benefits on behalf of a veteran who developed PTSD as a result of his military service.  That veteran recently received an award determining that he did suffer from service connected PTSD and granting a 50 percent disability rating.

Part of our work on this claim included locating military records that corroborated our client’s account of two deaths he witnessed during his service aboard a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier. Because these events had occurred over 20 years ago, the client was unable to recall the names of those killed or the dates of these events as required by the VA before they will perform a search of military records.  However, based on the veteran’s detailed description of the events he witnessed, Perkins Studdard was able to perform its own research and determine to the day when these in-service stressors occurred.  We supplemented the application with that information, including official military reports of the incidents, and service-connection was granted.  We were very happy to be able to assist this veteran in obtaining service connection for his PTSD.

In addition to handling initial applications for benefits and claims for increased ratings, our attorneys also handle appeals.  These appeals usually result from the denial of an application for benefits or a grant of benefits where the disability rating is too low.  If you have questions about your application for VA benefits or wish to file an application, our attorneys will be happy to talk to you.  To schedule a free consultation with one of our attorneys, simply call the phone number on the right of this page or complete the “Need Help” form.

Thank you so much ! I received excellent representation from the entire Perkins Studdard Law firm, my VA claim was resolved and granted in a timely manner, they were hands on with me during the entire process.

I would like to thank the law firm of Perkins-Studdard (Travis) and his team, for performing such an outstanding job, at every possible level, during my recent situation with the VA Disability Claims . From the first time I called and spoke with Mr Studdard with an overview of my situation, until the final settlement was executed (successfully I may add), I always felt that I was in good hands with this firm. Everyone in the office, Jessica, and April were responsive, approachable, knowledgeable, good listeners, and extremely professional. Mr. Studdard was realistic of the circumstances and of the potential difficult process that would lay ahead, should I proceed. I can’t say enough about Travis, and I will always be thankful to him. Travis was committed, and he instilled a real sense of confidence during both the highs and the lows. He ultimately prevailed and the outcome was very much in my favor. Of course, each case is different on its own merits and one can never predict how things ultimately will turn out. All I know is that the settlement far exceeded my expectation. Mr. Studdard has been a blessing to me. I strongly recommend that anyone who would find themselves in a similar legal situation with the VA to contact Law Offices of Perkins Studdard for a consultation. It was a very positive experience given the circumstances. Thank you again, I shall forever be in your debt.Concetta Hogg
Mr. Perkins, I cannot express enough how thankful I am for your exceptional representation. Your hard work, expertise, and unwavering commitment to my case have left an indelible mark. Thanks to you, I can now move forward with my life, confident that justice has been served.Esli Roque
Travis and his team have been a blessing for me and my family. They have done an amazing job in helping me navigate the VA appeals process.

I highly recommend Travis and his team because thanks to their professionalism and know how, I got the benefits I deserve.Daniel patriot
Travis has been a blessing to our family, he left no stone unturned and delivered the "W" for my VA claim. Every bit of my experience with the Perkins Studdard team was respectful and they demonstrated their appreciation for our service as veterans. I highly recommend this Law Firm and truly appreciate their willingness to stand on my behalf.M L
They were a huge help with my appeal on my VA disability claim. I appreciate all the hard work they put in. I couldn't have done it without them. I definitely recommend them to anyone who needs help like I did!Benjamin Leatherbury
“I wish I could give the law office of Perkins and Studdard a billion 5 stars.” I was getting the run around with the va claims department regarding having my claims percentage corrected, the va reduced my percentage to discourage me from continuing to file. I saw Mr Perkins Studdard on utube and his knowledge about the va compensation process compel me to contact his office. Within three months of the va reducing my compensation percentage from 90% to 80%…..the law office of Perkins and Studdard got me to 100% P&T. I would strongly advise my fellow veterans that have been denied their compensation to give this law office a call, my results speak for itself. I cannot say thank u enough to this law firm, they are the best. Thanks again, DeanDee Dep
