About Casey
Biography
Casey served as an Infantryman Paratrooper in the Army and an Intelligence Analyst in the Air Force. While in the Army, he tried out for and was selected as a member of a Scout Reconnaissance Platoon with the 2/505 Parachute Infantry Regiment. During his time with the Scout Platoon, Casey served on a Quick Reaction Force in the Middle East following the attack on the USS Cole. As an Intelligence Analyst with the Air Force, Casey worked with the 107th Fighter Squadron out of Selfridge Air Base, MI, and deployed to Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF).
Following his military service, Casey attended and graduated with honors from Cooley Law School. There he received several book awards, which are awarded to one student in each law class for superior academic performance. While attending Cooley Law School, he helped charter and was President of Cooley Law School’s Veteran’s Organization. Casey also routinely volunteered as a speaker and assisted in consultations with Cooley Law School’s pro bono “Service to Soldiers” program – a legal referral and assistance program for veterans returning from combat.
After obtaining his license to practice law in Michigan, Casey was employed as a claims adjudicator (rater) by the Veterans Benefits Administration of the Department of Veteran Affairs. There he became intimately familiar with processes and laws governing VA benefits, giving Casey an “insider’s” understanding as to how the VA decides claims. While employed by the VA, Casey realized the critical need for competent and effective veteran advocacy.
After being admitted to the Michigan Bar Association in 2011, Casey became an accredited VA attorney and was admitted to practice law before the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC). Casey is intimately familiar with laws governing veterans’ benefits and has competently represented veterans on appeal since he began practicing law in 2011.
Casey’s legal expertise, coupled with his experience as a former VA employee, uniquely qualify him as an effective VA attorney and advocate.

Promised little, Delivered a LOT!
How many lawyers are recent veterans that used to work in the VA? By pure serendipity I was introduced to Casey by another veteran. I retired from 27 years of military service on AD and the Guard. I had several problems that the VA initially denied and some they wouldn’t even acknowledge. I though...

Mr. Walker and his team are very professional and their knowledge is unprecedented! They assisted me at every turn and provided sound advice on every concern I had. I highly recommend them to anyone who feels the need for assistance in navigating the VA's complex system.

Very knowledgeable attorney
I contacted and hired Casey Walker to take my VA disability case. I had reached out to other attorneys but decided to go with Casey as he was so much more knowledgeable than the others. He was always willing to take the time to explain things to me and was very helpful. He is a very good communicator...
