VA Disability vs. Social Security Disability
By Nicholas Wearne, Associate Attorney
While I am not completely familiar with the process of
applying and acquiring Veteran’s Disability Benefits, I have many clients who
have applied for and obtained VA disability benefits.
The law states that
the judge is supposed to take the approval of Veteran’s Disability Benefits
into consideration when making a determination regarding Social Security
Disability Benefits.
While the law merely says the judge has to take it
into consideration, my experience is it tends to hold a lot of weight with them.
If are a disabled veteran and want to apply for Social Security Disability
Benefits as well, contact Snow Carpio and Weekley for a free consultation.
