Veteran’s Benefits

Baton Rouge Veterans’ Benefits Attorneys

Contact Leger Law Group, LLC for Assistance Now

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs offers a number of different benefits available to veterans and their families in need of assistance following their service to our country. Of these, Aid and Attendance benefits are some of the most crucial for veterans suffering a debilitating condition and surviving families who have lost their loved one. Unfortunately, very few of those veterans and families are aware of their eligibility for these benefits and the relief they can provide.

If you are a veteran or a surviving spouse facing financial straits, you may be eligible to receive benefits from the VA. At Leger Law Group, LLC, we understand the challenges these claimants face in the submission process and have the experience and vigilance to ensure that your claim faces the best chance at a swift approval.

Our Baton Rouge veterans' benefits lawyers are ready to assist you during this trying time. Contact us at (225) 522-4996 today.

Aid and Attendance Requirements

Not everyone that has served in the military is eligible to receive Aid and Attendance benefits. Generally speaking, they are reserved for service members that have been put in harm's way and now require regular assistance from a caregiver. Additionally, these benefits can assist family members that have lost a loved one to military service.

Requirements for Aid and Attendance benefits include:

  • At least 90 days of service
  • At least 1 day of wartime service
  • Less than $80,000 in resources

Please note that a veteran's medical condition does not necessarily have to be related to their military service for them to qualify. There are sometimes other medical or financial considerations to consider in these claims, but these benefits can provide a monthly benefit up to $2,120 for veterans or up to $1,149 to a surviving family. For more information on Aid and Attendance, your eligibility, and how Leger Law Group, LLC can assist you with a thorough and compelling claim, call our firm today.

  • “Siobhan and her team were wonderful to work with!”
    Siobhan and her team were wonderful to work with! They were quick to help me prepare for some estate planning needs that very suddenly became necessary. Estate planning can feel very overwhelming, but Siobhan was able to guide me through the process, so I was able to make informed decisions for the future. It is a relief to have a plan in place for my children's needs if something unexpectedly happens to me.

  • “Siobhan Leger and her team are fantastic.”
    Siobhan Leger and her team are fantastic. They way they helped me and my wife navigate the very daunting and emotionally charged landscape of our wills, our estate planning, and, most importantly, the custody arrangements for our two young kids (in the event of our death). It's brutal worst case scenario stuff but Siobhan was patient, understanding, and incredibly knowledgeable as we together went line by line getting all our ducks in a row. Now that it's taken care of, I can rest easy knowing my kids will taken care of if I die. Thank you, Leger Law Group.
