Justin Michael Smith

Justin Smith is extremely professional and truly outstanding at what he does. There are very few lawyers in the state of Ohio who work with VA claims, and for years I was stuck at a 90% service-connected disability rating with no clear path forward. A coworker recommended Justin, and that recommendat...ion changed everything. I showed up at his office unannounced, and not only did he take the time to speak with me about my case, but he also took me on as a client without hesitation. Justin had my case organized and moving forward quickly, and within six months he had it ready to go. As a result of his work, I was granted a 100% service-connected disability rating. Working with the VA can be overwhelming and daunting, but Justin made the entire process far easier. He handled all of the paperwork and legal aspects while guiding me through the medical side of things, which took a tremendous amount of stress off my shoulders. I would highly recommend Justin Smith to anyone dealing with unresolved medical issues or VA disability claims. His knowledge, professionalism, and dedication truly make a difference.

Justin and his team were very helpful with my case. He was able to assist me with obtaining a favorable decision with the VA which resulted in a 100% rating. Navigating the complex VA system is much less stressful when you hire an experienced and empathetic lawyer like Justin. Justin and his te...am were always available to answer my questions and worked hard to advocate on my behalf. If you need help to obtain the benefits you earned, I would highly recommend hiring Justin Smith to assist you with this process.

I was very pleased with the services Justin provided. I served 20 combined years between active duty and the Ohio National Guard. My active duty years were in the late 80’s - early 90’s. I never thought about seeking any compensation/disability benefits from medical issues that resulted from my act...ive duty time until a friend suggested talking with Justin. From day one, Justin explained everything thoroughly and encouraged me to follow thru with the process. While the process was intimidating when first explained to me, Justin aided me in the things that I needed to do and documents that were necessary for him to best prepare the claim. I never felt lost in the process (paperwork, exams and VA communication) and this is because Justin is knowledgeable, personable, and was accessible for my questions and concerns. My claim took approx 12 months, but the outcome was better than I had anticipated. My family and I are beyond appreciative of Justin and the outcome of his efforts in compiling and filing my claim. Very much worth it!

I served in Vietnam and had never filed a VA Disability claim. A good friend and Vietnam Veteran referred me to Justin. Justin moved me to the front of his case load since I have a terminal illness.Justin was able to fast track my claim and prioritize an appeal so that I received the rating that I wa...s entitled to.

We were referred to Justin by someone we know. Justin explained and walked us through the whole process as the steps moved along. It has been a lengthy process, but he made sure to respond as quickly as possible and keep us informed. He has always been very patient dealing with my disabled wife and... going out of his way to make sure she also understood. It has been an enjoyable pleasure working with him. He is a good lawyer and he is looking out for your best interest. You cannot go wrong and I am proud to call him a military brother.
