Your Trusted Lawyers In Difficult Times

Think You May Be Entitled To Veterans Benefits? Our Ohio Attorneys Can Help.

Military veterans may be entitled to medical care and monthly cash benefits through the Department of Veterans Affairs. VA disability benefits are closely associated with state Medicaid coverage. It is important to understand income limits and eligibility rules. With the recent scandals regarding wait times and substandard care at VA facilities, it is all the more important to have a strong legal advocate.

Approved VA Administrators

Mahaffey & Associates, provides legal assistance in northwest Ohio to veterans or surviving beneficiaries seeking VA benefits. Our law firm was recently approved to administer VA disability claims. (Attorneys are not allowed to give such advice without being certified by the VA’s Veterans Benefits Administration.)

Elder Law And Veteran Law

We advise elderly clients, or their guardians or family members, in a wide range of legal concerns. Many clients are eligible for veterans benefits, including survivors benefits for spouses or dependent children. We can handle appeals if a military vet’s application is denied or the VA tries to reduce or terminate benefits. We can also coordinate with Medicaid, including qualifying for nursing home care without jeopardizing VA benefits. We can also address veterans’ pensions and military benefits as they relate to divorce, debt relief and other areas of law.

The VA is a large and complex bureaucracy. Our lawyers and staff can help retired veterans (or qualifying veterans of any age) navigate the legal process and assert their rights. Our Toledo veterans benefits attorneys offer a free initial phone consultation, and we have a convenient office location in Sylvania. Call 419-741-0111 or contact us online.
