Thanks to Jason

Jason is exceptionally friendly and personable. I really appreciate that he’s also a veteran — it made it easy for me to relate to him and feel understood. He helped me achieve the highest possible disability rating for my case, and I’m truly grateful for his support. I highly recommend Jason for ...any VA disability benefits assistance. Thank you again, Jason!

We went from denials to numerous wins after securing Mr. Jason Thomas as our VA attorney

Without the help of Mr. Jason Thomas, I would still be struggling over my disability rating and having suffered from Agent Orange exposure while serving in the military. It was not one case, but several cases that Mr. Jason Thomas was able to work with the VA over for my health problems - my disabil...ity rating rose from 40% disability rating to a 100% rating+, but also help obtain more support from the VA from both increased pay support to additional medical support inside the home. My family is extremely thankful for Mr. Thomas' help and guidance, and most important, his determination to win. Thank you!

Berry Law Firm for all of your legal needs

I filed a claim with the VA for a number of physical disabilities and fought with them for a number of years always with them denying my claim, then, I was introduced to Jason Thomas with Berry Law and at that moment, things changed. I am so happy that Jason got in touch with me and started working ...on my case. At first it was because of my exposer to the contaminated water at Camp Lejuene N.C. As he dug further he filed a claim for tinitis which was settled within 1 month and me receiving a 10% disability rating. He didn't stop there, he continued to ask me questions about my health and kept digging into my medical records and of this date my disability rating has been boosted to 70% all due to his diligence. This is to thank Berry Law and especially Jason Thomas for his hard work in dealing with my case. Berry Law is the only Law Firm that I would recommend to handle any situation in which you would need an Attorney!

Superb and professional performance

Mr. Thomas did an exceptional job in advocating for my benefits. Mr. Thomas did not waste time and proceeded to accomplish things in a short amount of time. I will not hesitate to recommend them to my brothers and sisters who served and were injured in the line of duty. Thanks for your support and... help Mr. Thomas

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
