  • I have been denied VA disability. What should I do?
    You should act now. Typically, you have one year to appeal a VA disability decision. There are multiple lanes of appeal, each one with specific requirements. Attorney Cerra is skilled at navigating each lane, and will help you choose the appropriate lane and gather the evidence you need to be successful in your appeal.
  • What standard does each Board use in determining if you are eligible for a discharge upgrade?
    The Discharge Review Board uses the standards of inequity and impropriety. The Board of Correction for Military Records uses the standard of error or injustice. Contact us to learn which Board may be right for you.
  • I have been out of the Military for a long time, is it too late to apply for VA disability?
    No, it is never too late to apply for VA disability. Evidence of an in service injury or disease may be in your Service Treatment Records. With access to your VA file, Attorney Cerra can review your military records and find the evidence.
