This client just went from 0% to 60% VA disability, but, this win came from only ONE serious right knee injury....๐ฆต
Instead of letting it get treated like simple โknee pain,โ we made sure the claim reflected the full picture of the condition: including ACL tear residuals, post-surgical limitations, instability, reduced range of motion, and painful scars.
That matters, because the VA can rate different parts of a knee condition separately when the evidence is developed and structured the right way. A lot of veterans are leaving ratings on the table because their claim was filed too broadly, too simply, or without enough strategy behind it.
At the same time, the VA continues tightening its process as regulations, standards, and exam practices evolve. That means strong claim structure matters now more than ever.
The best time to file was yesterday. The second best time is now.
For this veteran, now, we move into Phase 2. Building out the strongest secondary claims and continuing the push for the most accurate rating possible. Stay tuned for another increase.
This is why strategy, records review, and evidence development matter.๐ช
