What Counts as a Service Related Disability?
Almost every injury, illness or condition suffered in connection with, or made worse during, military service can be considered “service connected.” It is not necessary that the condition is related to combat or military duties.
The criteria for service connected disability is that there must be a current medical diagnosis and you need to show that there is a nexus between the current diagnosis and the time you spent in the military.
Certain types of physical and mental impairments are presumed to be service connected. Even if yours is not one of those, we know how to prove that you deserve the benefits you’re seeking and get the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to fully and fairly consider your claim. Please remember that the VA rates vets from 0% to 100% disabled in 10% increments. Thus, even if your condition does not stop you from working, you could still be entitled to something.
