Because Fine, Olin & Anderman, LLP (FOA) is committed to working with union members, everything we do is to benefit the worker. Whether you come to FOA because you have been injured on the job and are eligible for Workers’ Compensation, or can no longer work and need Social Security Disability Benefits, have a Personal Injury, or need an attorney for General Legal Services or Veterans Disability Benefits, we will be right there with you every step of the way, no matter how long it takes.
What Is Veterans Disability Compensation and Who Qualifies for it?
You may be eligible for compensation if you were wounded, injured, became ill while on active duty, or have been diagnosed with a disease, PTSD or TBI relating to your service in the Armed Forces. Pre-existing injuries or illnesses which were aggravated by military service may also be covered. Although most service-connected disabilities appear during or soon after military service, some conditions may not have appeared at all or appeared but were not disabling until many years after discharge.
