Free Veterans Law Online
Free online Veterans Legal and Benefits information.
(PRWEB) January 14, 2005
Veteran's Resource Network - http://www. valaw. org (http://www. valaw. org) provides free Veterans Legal and Benefits information. The valaw. org internet project takes on the for profit Legal companies like: LexisNexis; West law, and others by giving veterans a "no-cost" alternative.
Http://www. valaw. org (http://www. valaw. org) lists Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, Veterans Court, VA General Counsel, VA Manuals, and more in an easy to search database.
While high priced legal information companies ask for $12 per case cited; or access by the month for $100, the valaw. org projects offers public domain information free to help all veterans and their families obtain their earned benefits.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) oversees delivery of Veterans benefits to an estimated 26,549,704 veterans, and their dependents. Veterans Claims once filed are adjudicated at Regional offices which are located in every State, and in some overseas locations. (Official VA website: http://www. va. gov (http://www. va. gov))
The VA pays Compensation for service connected disability, and VA pension to Wartime veterans with total disability and low income levels. The claims process often takes years to complete and VA adjudication of claims is weighted against a fair and speedy decision for veterans.
The veteran must either file claims for themselves, or rely on overworked service representatives from non-profit groups like the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans, Vietnam Veterans of America, or one of hundreds of other groups. And veterans are prevented by law from hiring an attorney until they have a final decision from the Board of Veterans Appeals in Washington, DC.
The claims process is often confusing and made so by the legal foot-dragging by the VA, and the limited free information available to veterans. The Veterans Resources Network: http://www. valaw. org (http://www. valaw. org) provides free veterans legal and benefits information in an easy to access database.
Some veterans are also eligible for health care; VA guaranteed home loans, vocational rehabilitation, and other services. In addition some veterans dependents may be eligible for VA benefits as survivor of a service connected disabled veteran. Veterans and their dependents can obtain the latest in VA legal and benefits information from Veterans Resources Network http://www. valaw. org (http://www. valaw. org).
