Veterans Disability Lawsuit - How to File a Veterans Disability Lawsuit
A veterans disability lawsuit could be the solution for many veterans suffering from disabilities as a result of their military service. The Department of Veterans Affairs provides benefits to those who been in the military, including medical care and specialty programs.
According to a lawsuit filed on Monday, Black veterans have disproportionately more trouble in obtaining these benefits. The suit was filed on behalf of Conley Monk Jr. by Yale Law School's Veterans Legal Services Clinic.
PTSD
If someone experiences trauma they may be prone to develop symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Symptoms include anxiety, nightmares or frightening flashbacks. This disorder can make the sufferer to avoid places or situations that remind them of their traumatic experience. This can cause people to feel lonely and depressed. Counseling, medication and support from family members can help combat PTSD.
A lawsuit that was filed by Black veterans and a Yale law clinic has revealed that the Department of Veterans Affairs has been systematically denying disability compensation claims to Black veterans for decades. Quil Lawrence of NPR reports that a VA whistleblower notified the vets that VA documents revealed 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 rate for Black veterans of disability claims was rejected at 29.5 percent compared to 24.2 percent of white veterans.
The lawsuit seeks compensation for Monk and Black veterans who were denied benefits unfairly. It also demands the VA to review hundreds of other claims that were wrongly dismissed. The lawsuit was filed in federal court this week.
Traumatic Brain Injury
TBI symptoms can be present immediately or develop hours, days or even weeks later. Some signs (headache, dizziness, fatigue) are physical, while others may be related to memory, concentration, emotion or behavior issues. People suffering from TBI TBI might also have difficulty moving around, or have problems with balance and vision.
The brain's damage from a TBI can be caused by a bump, a blow or jolt to the head, whether from a blunt force or a penetrating wound (such as from a shot). The impact can cause the skull to break and cause bleeding and bruising of the brain inside the skull. The brain may swell and push against the skull, cutting off blood circulation. The injury could affect the whole brain or a specific area of the brain.
Certain TBIs are classified as open and some are closed. The classification depends on whether the skull has been fractured or not, and whether the skull was opened or closed by the impact. TBIs can differ in severity from a concussion up to a being in a coma. People with TBIs have a higher risk of developing depression and PTSD and other mental health issues. Research suggests that having multiple moderate to severe TBIs could increase the chance of developing dementia and movement disorders later in life.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
Post traumatic stress disorder, also known as PTSD, develops after people experience a trauma. It can be apparent immediately following the event, or may develop years later. They could include memory problems as well as difficulty getting sleep and concentrating, feelings of anger and irritability and being easily startled or jittery. There are some who be depressed or have suicidal thoughts. PTSD can cause problems at workplace, in relationships and at home. It can also cause dependence, which includes the use of alcohol or drugs.
It is possible to treat symptoms with psychotherapy, including eye movement desensitisation and processing (EMDR) or cognitive processing therapy. Antidepressants like selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs) can be beneficial for some people with PTSD. These medications can help control symptoms and make everyday activities easier.
Some research is exploring how to stop PTSD by examining whether the brain or genes may affect a person's reaction to trauma. Researchers are studying the ways in which a normal response to stress could turn into PTSD, and how it can be treated early.
It is essential to consult your doctor if you suffer from PTSD. It is important to address issues that affect your daily life such as difficulty getting along with others, or being anger and frustrated. Self-help can be helpful for people suffering from PTSD. They could benefit from talking about their experiences in therapy, or doing relaxation exercises such as deep breathing or a tempo-based exercise. They can also benefit by being able to share their fears with a trusted individual.
The following are the ways to decrease your risk:
Depression can cause feelings of sadness or hopelessness. It can be treated with psychotherapy, which is the process of talking with an experienced therapist about the issues that cause you stress. You may be prescribed medication to help improve your mood. There are numerous types of therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help you change negative thoughts and behavior and focuses on relationships. There are also group therapies that bring patients with the same problem together in a safe and supportive setting.
The lawsuit alleges that the VA discriminated against Black Veterans for a long time by declining disability claims in an increased rate than white veterans. Conley Monk is a Vietnam War veteran, who has been fighting for medical benefits including housing, education and housing benefits for more than 50 years. The suit was filed by Yale Law School's Veterans Legal Services Clinic, which represented Monk in his successful attempt to overturn his less-than-honorable military discharge due to PTSD and other injuries.
The lawsuit asserts that racial discrimination in the military justice system affected the discharge status of Black service members and VA officials should have been aware of this when deciding on disability compensation. It cites research that found that between 2001 and 2020, the average rate of denial for Black veterans who applied for disability compensation was 29.5 percent, compared to 24.2% for white veterans disability law firms.
