Stay In The Know

  • When Should I Apply for Benefits?
    Unless you have an obvious long-term disability, the best time to apply for Social Security disability benefits is 6-9 months after you stop working.
  • When Do You Suggest I Hire a Lawyer?
    Most claimants wait until their claims are denied on reconsideration before hiring a lawyer. Most observers agree this timing works well because it is at a hearing that having a lawyer truly makes a difference.

    It can take up to two years from request until a hearing is held and a decision issued, but the time varies from state to state.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Veterans Benefits & Who Is Eligible?

Veterans benefits encompass a range of financial and healthcare support services available to military personnel. Eligibility generally depends on the nature of the service, its duration, and any service-related health issues. At Bowman, DePree & Murphy, we help veterans determine their specific eligibility and navigate the application process smoothly.

Moreover, understanding eligibility criteria can provide insight into what specific benefits are available, such as health care, disability compensation, education loans, and housing assistance. We ensure that each client is thoroughly aware of these options and their eligibility criteria, fostering informed decision-making throughout the claim process.

How Long Does the Claims Process Take?

The timeframe for veterans benefits claims can vary significantly based on individual circumstances and the complexity of each situation. Initial claims can take several months, and appeals might extend the process further. Our team works diligently to expedite your application or appeal and keep you informed at every stage.

We take proactive steps to reduce potential delays. By preparing thorough and well-documented submissions, we aim to minimize the chances of requests for additional evidence or unnecessary bureaucratic setbacks. Regular follow-ups with local VA offices and maintaining open communication channels also help keep the process moving smoothly.

What If My Claim Is Denied?

Claim denial doesn’t mean the end of the road. Davenport veterans can rely on Bowman, DePree & Murphy to manage the appeals process, from reconsideration to presenting your appeal in federal court. We meticulously review your claim to identify the best action to achieve a favorable outcome.

With our extensive experience, we understand potential reasons for denial and how to address them effectively. This includes collecting new evidence, refining legal arguments, or identifying procedural errors. Our strategy is tailored to the specifics of each denial, maximizing the chances of overturning the decision in your favor.

Can I Appeal a Decision on My Own?

While managing an appeal independently is possible, having professional legal support can significantly enhance your success rate. The appeals process is complex and involves substantial legal and administrative challenges. We provide skilled advocacy to navigate these hurdles efficiently.

Our guidance and strategic insight can be invaluable in understanding legal precedents and ensuring adherence to procedural norms. We also provide support beyond legal representation, offering guidance on preparing for hearings or submitting additional documentation that strengthens your case during the appeal.
