Survivors Benefits Resource Center

A variety of benefits and services are offered to the spouses, children, and parents of veterans who have passed away with a service-connected disability. If you are a survivor of a deceased veteran, you deserve the appropriate financial compensations and services. Many survivors contact us unaware of their eligibility for pensions and financial assistance. A report in 2005 stated that roughly 2 million veterans and widows miss out on the pensions they deserve.

Pensions, however, are not the only forms of compensation available for survivors and dependents. Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC), educational programs, and special home loan opportunities are offered to Veteran's survivors. Yet, the VA often denies claims or the claimants are unaware of their eligibility.

We have dealt with a variety of survivor cases. If you are a survivor of a deceased Veteran and have questions about the services and compensation you are eligible for, contact us today.

Why Choose Sean Kendall

No one gets left behind with our firm.

Veterans' benefits lawyer Sean Kendall has been working to help veterans since his student days at The George Washington University in Washington D.C. In fact, he has been actively studying and pursuing justice for veterans since the inception of the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims in 1988, participating in precedent-setting cases such as Ephraim v. Brown (5 Vet. App. 549).

Since starting his own practice in the early 1990s, Sean has been helping veterans on thousands of cases all over the U.S. His travels include recent cases in California, Florida, North Carolina, Illinois, Colorado, and other Western States.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims is one of the few federal courts created since the colonies became states and ratified the United States Constitution. Prior to the court's creation, there was no judicial recourse for veterans who were denied their promised benefits. Imagine, no judicial forum for veterans from the Revolutionary War through the Civil War to the Great War, World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War.

Thankfully, the VA no longer has the final say when it comes to your benefits. Sean Kendall has extensive experience handling all kinds of claims before the VA and the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, including claims for:

Physical traumas/disabilities: including lower back disabilities, cervical spine injuries, and gunshot wounds (GSWs)

Psychiatric traumas/disabilities: including service-connected schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

Employment Issues: If you can't work due to your service-related disorders, you should be paid at the 100 percent rate.

Winning the battle with the bureaucrats and prevailing in your VA disability case often depends on having the right expert witness to testify in your case.

Sean Kendall has collaborated with a network of experts to win claims worth hundreds of thousands of dollars for his clients. He also continues to work extensively with Veterans Service Organizations (VSOs), and is even helping our newest veterans who've served in Afghanistan and Iraq. He has appeared in court before all of the current judges of the veterans' appeals court and knows the right things to say to help you win on your day in court.

We Cover the Nation

Attorneys experienced in VA benefits cases know how to find evidence when there appears to be none. You should involve a veterans' benefits attorney when your claim is denied or if you are unsure of the process yourself. They should be experienced and knowledgeable in the VA claims process by representing veterans with cases like yours against the VA Board of Veterans' Appeals.
