VA Denied Your Disability Claim? You Earned These Benefits. We Will Help You Get Them.
Herren Law represents Veterans of every branch nationwide on disability claims and appeals.
Every Veteran who served this country and suffered a service-connected condition deserves a VA disability rating that accurately reflects what their service cost them. The rating system, expressed as a percentage from 0 to 100 percent, determines monthly tax-free benefit payments, access to VA healthcare, life insurance eligibility, and support for dependents. A 100 percent rating, or a rating of 70 percent or more combined with individual unemployability (TDIU), can mean several thousand dollars per month.
The VA denies or underrates a significant portion of first-time claims. Ratings are often too low because the VA’s own examiners did not have access to the right medical evidence, because the Veteran did not know how to document the functional impact of their condition, or because service connection was not properly established. These are not final decisions, they are starting points for an appeal.
William Herren represents Veterans from every branch of service: Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Coast Guard, and Space Force. For Veterans disability matters, Herren Law provides representation regardless of where in the country the Veteran is located, this is not limited to Texas.
Conditions we frequently represent include traumatic brain injury, PTSD and other mental health conditions, musculoskeletal injuries, hearing loss and tinnitus, Agent Orange related conditions including certain cancers and diabetes, Gulf War syndrome, and toxic exposure claims under the PACT Act. If you have been denied or underrated, call 1-800-529-7707 for a free evaluation.
We fight for the Veterans the VA has told no.
Veterans denied any service connection
We help establish the link between your condition and your service through records, lay statements, and medical opinions.
Veterans rated too low
If your rating does not reflect the true severity of your condition, we pursue an increase through the right appeal lane.
Veterans pursuing TDIU
Total Disability based on Individual Unemployability pays at the 100 percent rate when service-connected conditions prevent gainful work.
PACT Act and toxic exposure claims
New presumptive conditions are now eligible for compensation. We help eligible Veterans file the strongest possible claim.
Survivors pursuing DIC
Surviving spouses and dependents may qualify for Dependency and Indemnity Compensation when service connection contributed to a Veteran's death.

What If I Have Already Been Denied or Underrated?
Under the Appeals Modernization Act, you generally have one year from the date of your VA decision to choose one of three appeal lanes: Higher-Level Review, a Supplemental Claim, or an appeal to the Board of Veterans Appeals. Each lane exists for a different reason, and choosing the wrong one can cost months, or a winnable claim.
We read the decision in full, identify what is missing or wrong, and pick the lane that gives your case the best chance. When new and relevant evidence is needed, we know how to develop it through buddy statements, treating physician opinions, and independent medical exams. When the VA misapplied the law or ignored evidence already in the record, we say so on the record.
Herren Law has represented Veterans from every branch and every era of service. Whether your claim involves Agent Orange, burn pits and PACT Act presumptions, PTSD, TBI, or musculoskeletal injuries, the time to act is now, the one-year clock is running.
