The Veterans Advocacy Project provides legal assistance to disabled veterans seeking fair and timely benefits from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the Armed Forces. Sidley assists veterans with claims for service-connected disability compensation from the Department of Veterans Affairs; claims for medical retirement benefits from the armed forces; and applications for combat-related special compensation from the armed forces. We also represent veterans with petitions for discharge upgrades to the armed forces. In 2023, our lawyers and business professionals handled more than 100 individual matters and four class actions – totaling over 8,000 hours and serving thousands of veterans.
