What a Veterans Law Attorney Can Do for You

The United States Department of Veterans Affairs offers numerous benefits to veterans and first responders alike, including compensation for disabilities and pensions for low-income veterans and surviving spouses. Unfortunately, obtaining these benefits is often difficult on account of claim errors, insufficient evidence, and military discharge issues.

Here is where Framingham veterans law attorney Robert Cerra is invaluable. He routinely prepares and files claims for VA benefits, helping clients avoid critical mistakes and setbacks. In the event that claims are denied, he assists with filing an appeal and representing clients’ interests at every step of the appeals process.

Additionally, he fights to obtain military discharge upgrades for those who have wrongfully received a less-than-honorable discharge, enabling them to access VA benefits and restore their honor as veterans. With his knowledge of the Massachusetts criminal justice system, Attorney Cerra also defends veterans accused of crimes and works to secure referrals to Veteran’s Treatment Courts.

Who Can Benefit from Hiring a Veterans Law Attorney?

Here are some specific groups that may benefit from enlisting the help of Attorney Cerra:

Veterans struggling with PTSD or other disabilities - For those who have served in combat or experienced traumatic events during their service, the effects of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other disabilities can be immense. Attorney Cerra can assist these individuals in obtaining the necessary evidence for disability claims and work to overcome challenges in the process.
Veterans with less-than-honorable discharges - Many veterans are discharged under less-than-honorable conditions because of mental health issues, substance abuse problems, and other extenuating circumstances. As a result, these individuals are often unable to access VA benefits; however, a skilled professional like Attorney Cerra can help them seek an upgrade to their discharge status.
Surviving spouses and dependents of veterans - Beyond veterans, Attorney Cerra represents surviving spouses and dependents of veterans attempting to obtain VA benefits to which they are entitled.
First responders with PTSD or other disabilities - Similar to veterans, first responders such as police officers, firefighters, and paramedics often experience traumatic events that can cause mental health issues and disabilities. Attorney Cerra proudly provides first responders with guidance and advocacy.
