Veterans Disability Lawsuit - How to File a Veterans Disability Lawsuit

A lawsuit for veterans' disability could be a solution for a lot of veterans suffering from disabilities as a result of their military service. The Department of Veterans Affairs provides benefits to those who served in the military, such as medical treatment and specialty programs.

According to a lawsuit filed on Monday, Black veterans have disproportionately more difficulty in obtaining these benefits. The suit was filed on behalf of Conley Monk Jr. by Yale Law School's Veterans Legal Services Clinic.

PTSD

When people experience trauma it can lead them to develop symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). These symptoms could include flashbacks, nightmares, or anxiety that cause anxiety. The condition may also cause a person to avoid certain places or situations that trigger the trauma. This can cause isolation and depression. The good news is that PTSD can be treated with counseling, medication and support from family members.

A new lawsuit filed by Black veterans disability law firms (linked web site) and a Yale law clinic has found that the Department of Veterans Affairs has consistently denied disability compensation claims to Black vets for decades. Quil Lawrence of NPR reports that a VA whistleblower notified the vets that VA documents showed that Black veterans were denied benefits at a higher rate than their white counterparts.

The lawsuit was filed by Marine Vietnam veteran Conley Monk and Yale's Veterans Legal Services Clinic. The lawsuit cites figures showing that between 2001 and 2020, the percentage for Black veterans' disability claims was rejected at 29.5 percent, as compared to 24.2 percent of white veterans.

The lawsuit seeks to recover compensation for Monk and Black veterans who were denied benefits unfairly. It also aims to force the VA to reconsider the thousands of other claims that were wrongly dismissed. The lawsuit was filed this week in federal court.

Traumatic Brain Injury

TBI can be mild, moderate or even severe and symptoms may become visible or they may appear hours or even weeks after the injury. Certain symptoms are physical (headache dizziness, fatigue, and headache) while others may be related to issues with memory and concentration, emotional or behavior. TBI patients may also experience problems with movement or balance and vision.

The damage to the brain from a TBI can be caused by a bump, blow or jolt to the head, whether from a blunt force or a penetrating wound (such as from a shot). The impact could cause the skull to fracture which causes bleeding and bruising of the brain within the skull. The brain may swell and push against the skull, cutting off blood circulation. The injury can affect the entire brain, or a specific area of the brain.

Certain TBIs can be classified as closed and others as open. The classification is determined by whether or not the skull was fractured and whether or not the skull was closed or opened by the impact. TBIs range in severity, from a concussion up to a fatal coma. People with TBI are at increased risk of developing depression, PTSD and other mental health issues. Some research suggests that having multiple moderate to severe TBIs could increase the likelihood of developing dementia and other movement issues in later life.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

Post traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, develops after people suffer a trauma. The symptoms can begin when the event is over or even years later. They may include memory issues, difficulty sleeping and concentrating, feelings of anger and irritability and being easily startled or jittery. Some people may experience depression or suicidal. PTSD can cause problems at work, in relationships and at home. It can also cause alcohol or drug addiction.

Psychotherapy can help treat symptoms, like eye movement desensitisation (EMDR) and cognitive processing therapy. Antidepressants, such as selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs) can be beneficial for those suffering from PTSD. The medications can help manage the symptoms and aid in getting through everyday activities.

Certain studies examine ways to avoid PTSD. This includes studying whether genes and the brain can affect a person's response to a trauma. Other studies are looking at how a normal response to stress transforms into PTSD and how to treat it early.

It is vital to see a doctor if you have PTSD. The symptoms that hinder your everyday life, like trouble getting along with others or feeling angry and annoyed should be addressed immediately. Self-help is a great option for those suffering from PTSD. They may benefit from sharing their experiences in therapy or engaging in relaxation exercises like deep breathing and a rhythmic exercise. They may also gain from sharing their anxieties with a trusted friend.

The following are some of the ways to reduce the risk of developing a rash:

Depression is a condition that can lead to feelings of sadness and hopelessness. Psychotherapy is one way to manage depression. This involves talking to a professional about the problems you are experiencing. It may also include medications that can help lift your mood. There are numerous types of therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help you change your negative thoughts and behaviors while interpersonal therapy is focused on relationships. There are group therapy options that bring people suffering from similar conditions together in a supportive environment.

The lawsuit claims that the VA discriminated against Black Veterans for a long time by rejecting disability claims at more than white veterans. It was filed on behalf of Conley Monk who was a Vietnam War veteran who tried to obtain medical benefits, housing assistance and education benefits for over 50 years. The lawsuit is being handled by Yale Law School’s Veterans Legal Services Clinic. Monk was represented in his successful effort to overturn his less-than-honorable military discharge because of PTSD and other injuries.

The lawsuit claims that racial bias within the military justice system affected the discharge status of many Black service members, and VA officials should have been aware of this prior to making decisions regarding disability compensation. The lawsuit cites a study that discovered that between 2001 and 2020 the average denial rate of Black veterans who applied for disability compensation was 29,5% against 24,2% for white veterans.
