- Survivors’ benefits
- Medical benefits
- Burial benefits
Medical Benefits for Injuries
Newark, New Jersey, veterans' affairs attorney Agnes S. Wladyka assists veterans with claims for compensation ranging from orthopedic injuries, to hearing loss, to mental health issues. Explosions, weapon firing and other loud noises have resulted in about one fourth of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans suffering some hearing loss. Orthopedic problems stem from jumping out of planes and other vehicles, and carrying heavy loads.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental health problems interfere with holding a job. Veterans determined to be unemployable may be eligible for Social Security disability benefits.
Pensions
Pensions are available to eligible veterans with service in war time and lack of family support. Elderly and disabled veterans have added benefits including Aid and Attendance that may allow you to remain in your home rather than a care facility.
Widows of veterans are eligible for benefits under certain conditions. Most benefits for veterans and their families require that you were discharged under conditions other than dishonorable.
Our office is dedicated to assisting veterans. Attorney Wladyka believes veterans are entitled to all of the above and more. If you have been denied benefits, we may be able to appeal to the Board of Veterans Appeals (BVA), or even the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC).
New Jersey administration claims assistance lawyer Agnes S. Wladyka cares about veterans. She has suffered disability herself, and founded our law firm to make high-quality legal representation available to people in need. Your case will be handled by Agnes personally, not a secretary or paralegal.
