Welcome back to VA Made Easy; VA-accredited attorney and US Army combat veteran Ed Farmer dives into why you might still be denied your VA claim even after obtaining a VA medical nexus opinion. Ed uncovers the common pitfalls that could lead to claim denials, including overlooked evidence and inadequate opinions. Exploring each issue, he highlights the importance of understanding your rating decision and the steps you can take to rectify a denial. Ed also sheds light on the benefit of the doubt rule and why it often gets disregarded. Finally, he outlines your options, from higher level reviews to the Board of Veterans Appeals, and emphasizes when it’s time to seek professional help.
