John Tucker holding the 9-Point Guide
"I created this guide to show you exactly where the VA went wrong on your claim. It's yours — free."
— John V. Tucker, Founder

Every Month You Wait Is Money You’re Not Putting in Your Pocket.

A denied claim doesn't fix itself. The VA won't call you to say they made a mistake. And every month that passes without the right rating is another month of benefits you've earned but aren't receiving. If you're rated at 50% when you should be at 100%, that's over $2,000 per month left on the table.

Strict Deadlines

Appeal deadlines are strict. Miss yours and you may have to start over from scratch.

Medical Care

Without the right rating, medical care and treatment benefits stay out of reach.

Take Action

The VA won't fix their mistake for you. Someone has to take action. That's what we do.

Don't leave your benefits to chance.

Every Month That Goes By Means Less Money for You and Your Family

A denied claim doesn't fix itself. The VA won't call you to say they made a mistake. And every month that passes without the right rating is another month of benefits you've earned but aren't receiving. If you're rated at 50% when you should be at 100%, that's over $2,000 per month your family is missing.

Strict Deadlines
Appeal deadlines are real. Miss yours and you may have to start the entire process over from scratch.
Medical Care
Without the right rating, medical care and treatment benefits stay out of reach.

9 Mistakes the VA Makes on Disability Claims — And How We Find Every One

When you choose Tucker Disability Law, our attorneys don't just re-file your paperwork. We perform a forensic analysis of your entire claim — examining nine critical areas where the VA commonly makes mistakes. Here's exactly what we look for:

1
Did the VA Use the Right Effective Date?
An incorrect effective date can cost you years of back pay. We verify the VA honored your original filing date.
2
Did the C&P Examiner's Conclusions Actually Follow from the Facts?
Many examiners list your symptoms, then reach a conclusion that doesn't match. We attack conclusions that aren't supported by the evidence.
3
Does Your Examiner Actually Understand Your Medical Condition?
Many C&P examiners are generalists. We master the medical: we research your diagnosis and make sure the decision-maker sees what the examiner missed.
4
Is There a Service Connection the VA Overlooked?
The VA must connect your condition to your service. If they missed the link — direct, secondary, or presumptive — we find the evidence to establish it.
5
Did the VA Apply the Correct Rating Criteria?
Rating schedules are complex and often misapplied. We verify the VA used the right criteria for your specific condition.
6
Are There Conditions That Were Never Claimed — or Ignored?
One service-connected condition often leads to others. Sometimes the right claim was never filed — we identify what's missing and file it.
7
Are You Missing Special Monthly Compensation?
SMC provides additional payment for severe disabilities. Many veterans qualify but are never told about it.
8
Is Critical Evidence Missing from Your File?
The VA decides based on what's in your record. If key medical evidence or service records are missing, your claim was decided on incomplete information.
9
Were You Evaluated for Unemployability?
If your disabilities prevent you from working, you may qualify for TDIU — Total Disability based on Individual Unemployability — even without a 100% rating.
Don't guess where your claim went wrong. Let us find it.

Veterans Who Fought Back — And Won

These veterans were told "no" by the VA. Tucker Disability Law told them, "We're just getting started."

Recovered After 12 Years of Denials
"It was the best decision I ever made… they wouldn't let go. They were like a tenacious bulldog."
— Ira Gold, U.S. Army Veteran
Got a 100% Rating When Everyone Else Said "No"
William Ringhofer, Army Veteran "My claim was denied by the VA, so I started attorney shopping. I contacted several attorneys who all said my case was too complicated. Then I contacted Tucker Disability Law. I first spoke with Caroline who was very kind to me. Caroline got things moving along right away. My case was reviewed right away and the Tucker team was confident that they could help me. I then dealt with Dan and Chris. They both kept me informed of what they were doing and after several months I received a 100% rating from the VA. I highly recommend Tucker Disability Law to any Veteran that needs help."
"I Was Stuck at 40%. Now I am at 90%"
Aaron McClanahan, Navy Veteran "Great firm! Dan and Sarah are top notch I was stuck at 40% now I am at 90%. I was ready to give up but Dan said stay the course I am very glad I did and they are still fighting for me I strongly suggest Tucker Disability."
