A DAV lawyer can help you weed through the paperwork and get the benefits you deserve.

DAV stands for Disabled American Veterans, a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting the legal rights of veterans and their dependents. DAV offers veterans a variety of services, including benefits assistance, outreach programs and career opportunities. If you're a veteran or the family member of a veteran and you need legal assistance, the DAV can help you find a lawyer or legal representative.

      Follow the DAV's directions carefully. It may help you find a lawyer in your area that it has approved, or it may suggest you obtain the services of an officer with the DAV National Service Office, or NSO. An NSO can help you file claims with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), for example.
