I am immensely satisfied with David and Craig’s assistance in handling my VA disability claim. His 10 plus years as a adjudicator for the Veteran’s Administration disability claims gives him a comprehensive understanding of the complex process and allows him to circumvent the typical pitfalls associated with filing a claim and getting approved. His professionalism and charismatic diplomacy open doors and cuts through the bureaucratic inefficiency and ineptitude associated with the whole process. His knowledge, guidance and quick responses to inquiries made the overall experience comforting and explained the process so that it was understandable and not overwhelming.

As I came to know the staff at the Veteran’s Legal Center, it was obvious they are motivated by innate idealism, and that’s how they approach the claims process and its purpose. It’s not all about the contingency fees. Besides, who wouldn’t settle for 80% of something versus 100% of nothing with a lot of frustration as well? David and Craig believes in the veteran’s right to certain benefits post-service because of the sacrifices of time served in the commitment of often difficult duties associated with our profession.I highly recommend the Veteran’s Legal Center and find it unlikely that anyone would be dissatisfied with their service. They don’t say anything they don’t mean, and pleasantly overdeliver without being asked. David’s name suits him because the whole experience reminded me of the parable of David and Goliath. As a highly decorated Navy veteran and retired merchant marine who had initially tried to unsuccessfully process the claim on my own for the last 30 years, David is a blessing.
