Serving You From Our Offices in Charlotte, Raleigh, Fayetteville and Durham By Getting To Know You. We Serve the Injured and Disabled Throughout the Carolinas. We Are Prepared To Fight For the Benefits and Compensation That You Need and Deserve.
If your service-related disability results in your inability to work and you can prove that, you are entitled to 100 percent disability rating from the Veterans' Affairs. Regardless of what rating the VA gave you previously, if you are unable to work, we encourage you to contact a lawyer with experience handling veterans' benefit claims and appeals.
Our clients have an advantage in individual unemployability claims, thanks to the medical and vocational experts whose opinions strengthen their claims. In contrast, the VA does not normally employ vocational experts as they build their case for denial.
The The Law Offices of Paul M. Goodson, P.C., has helped many North Carolina veterans obtain benefits through adjustment of their disability ratings when they were unemployable. We are prepared to aggressively advocate on your behalf in an administrative hearing where we will appeal denial of your veterans' disability claim.
A designation of individual unemployability allows a veteran to bypass the normal process of obtaining a 100 percent disability rating when chronic unemployability is a reality as a result of a service-related disability.
Our law firm is dedicated to helping injured and disabled veterans and civilians obtain compensation and benefits from all available sources. Some of our clients collect Social Security Disability benefits (SSD) and/or workers' compensation benefits in addition to veterans' benefits. Allow us to evaluate your case and determine whether you have a case for veterans' benefits according to the criteria used in an individual unemployability designation.
