Review

I'm a USAF Vietnam Veteran (Doppler/Inertial Navigation F4 Tech): I have been with Jan Dils since 2016. We were able to communicate very well via phone and emails; even though I personally never met anyone from the Firm. I released all my appeals, military and medical records to the Staff, as I ...started the Process in 2013 with the DAV. It is extremely important for all Veterans maintain these records, especially medical records after Service. I would like to extend my most humble Appreciation to Jan herself, The Staff and a Big Hug to Heather Vanhoose my Attorney for my Rating. I highly recommend Jan Dils Attorneys at Law to ALL Veterans seeking Professional assistance with they're Appeal.

Honest and Sincere Consultation

I was referred to Jan Dils's Office regarding a potential VA appeal. The office called me the next day, which was very reassuring, and I was treated as a priority. The intake officer was very respectful, professional, and put me at ease, making the stress and trauma of having to potentially hire ...an attorney easier to manage, especially with the sea of questionable options all over the internet. More importantly, they let me know I could do the claim myself without needing an attorney. This alone proves this business is honest, authentic, and genuine. The Jan Dils firm truly and sincerely has the best interest of the veteran at heart.

Best choice ever made

I was recommended to use this firm while at a Medal of Honor ceremony at the White House. I fought VA for 9 years and lost every claim… Jan Dils law firm fought for me and got me from 30% to 100% and won every appeal… They followed me to two different states and flew an attorney to Nashville for a Vi...deo Appeal Hearing.. I would not have won any claims without their help… Hard to get an attorney or Caseworker on the phone calling them directly because of their caseloads but always received a call back within 24 hrs.. Highly recommended this law firm to fight for you!

THE BEST

.I just want to say JanDils went above and beyond my expectations. I had lost my Social Security hearing and my lawyer told me to find a lawyer to represent me for the VA I was on a website and an instant message from JanDils came up and it was a girl named Tina who asked if she could help me with a ...social security or VA disability question.Anyway Tina asked me if I could send her permission to have her look at my VA file to see if she could help me. I gave her permission she sent me a package I filled it out and that was it. I filled out the package sent it back and didn't hear nothing for about a year. Then I got a phone call from JanDils requesting me if I would see a psychiatrist. JanDils would pay for the psychiatrist unless I won then I would have to pay JanDils back and that would be a good thing to pay JanDils back if JanDils wins. So I went and saw the psychiatrist it was a phone call only to find out that I had a avoidant personality disorder which the VA have never diagnosed me with . I had been seeing a counselor and nurse practitioners for five years once a month and never did they diagnosed me with an avoidant personality disorder. So another year goes by and the VA got in touch with me to have me see a psychiatrist that they hired only to show that I had the same diagnosis from JanDils psychiatrist.Two different psychiatrists same diagnosis. JanDils got me 70% for my anxiety because she hired a psychiatrist at her expense because she knew that there was a serious problem here that the VA was not recognizing. I am 55 years old and this avoidant personality disorder has been with me my whole life and JanDils is the one who got me help. I originally went to JanDils for my feet which is where I injured in Bud's basic underwater demolition SEAL training. I already had 30% for my feet and she got me 50% for my feet. she also put in a claim for my ankle which I also got 10% . JanDils also got me 40% for my right arm where I tore a tendon when I fell because of my feet and I had surgery that did not take.I started with 60% before I hired JanDils by the time I got done she had me at 190% disabilities which I only need to get a hundred percent. What that extra 90% did for me though was she got me extra pay I ended up with over $40,000 and that was after she got paid so that's enough for me to get a good car to put my Walker in So I can get to my appointment.Please give JanDils a shot they saved my life you got nothing to lose and everything to gain please get in touch with Jan dilis .also i paid nothing out of my own pocket. Jan Dils only gets paid if you win.
