Real Stories. Real Results. Roger That.

We’re proud to support veterans and their families through every stage of the appeals process. Here’s what some of our clients have to say about working with us.

Greg has taught me most of what I know as it pertains to Veterans benefits. He is kind, considerate, and cares about his Veterans. A true advocate. And treats his Veterans claims as if they were his own. Use him or your claims process will only produce the best results. I'm lucky to have had a partner to work with for as long as I did and would highly recommend his services.

After years of struggling with denials for my lower back and sciatica, Greg helped increase my rating from 30% to 70%. His approach is unmatched—I finally felt heard when sharing my frustrations and struggles with the VA, to the point where I was ready to give up. I’m so thankful I found Greg. He took my story and fought for me. His support has truly changed my life, and I am forever grateful for his dedication and service.
I can’t thank Greg enough for helping me with my claim. I received a low rating for my headaches, and it felt like I’d hit a wall trying to get the VA to take my condition seriously. Greg guided me every step of the way. Thanks to his expertise, my headache rating increased, pushing my overall rating to 100%. This has been life-changing for me. I highly recommend Freedom Claims Agency to veterans who need help navigating the VA system.”

In the number of years Greg Brittnacher has worked with me on VA disability and eligibility questions, he has always gone over and above to help me in interpreting VA correspondences and what was needed to obtain the proper VA disability ratings. There's no question Greg looks out for the individual he is working for.

I struggled to navigate the VA claims system for years before finally turning to Greg for help. He was instrumental in overturning the denial of my lower back condition. He simplified the complexities of the VA system and guided me to success. Greg took the time to identify the issues, and we devised a game plan. I couldn't have done it without his clear guidance. He knows the VA claims process, and more importantly, he truly cares about the veterans he serves. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking assistance with their VA claims.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about a VA disability appeal and what to expect from your case? Below, we’ve answered some of the most common questions we hear from veterans navigating the VA appeals process.

  • How long do I have to file an appeal?

    You generally have one year from the date on your decision letter to initiate an appeal.

  • What types of evidence can help my appeal?

    To improve the chance of your appeal succeeding, you’ll need to support it with strong evidence—including updated medical records, service treatment records, personal statements, buddy statements, and nexus letters from medical professionals that link your condition to your service.

  • How long does the VA appeals process take?

    The timeframe varies depending on the type of appeal and case complexity. Board Appeals can take two to three years or more, while Higher-Level Reviews and Supplemental Claims typically take six months to a year.

  • What if I miss the deadline for my appeal?

    If the deadline for your appeal has passed, you can still file a Supplemental Claim—as long as you include new and relevant evidence. When you work with Freedom Claims Agency, we’ll help you figure out if that’s the right path for your case.

  • Do I need a representative for my appeal?

    Although you aren’t required to have a representative, working with an experienced claims agent or attorney can ensure your case is presented clearly and effectively—improving your chances of success.
