You can trust Jason and Berry Law!

Fellow Veterans, Navigating the VA claims process alone was overwhelming. I started with an Intent to File in 2015, filed with a volunteer in 2016 (which nearly ruined my claim), and faced years of frustrating denials. Then I found Berry Law – and everything changed. Jason Thomas and his team stepp...ed in, worked tirelessly, and guided me through claims, appeals, and higher-level reviews. Thanks to them, I’m now rated 80% service-connected and still pushing forward. Jason is a veteran who truly fights for veterans. He never gave up on me – and he won’t give up on you. Call him at Berry Law. You won’t regret it!

Professionalism

I’ve been working with Jason for the past three years on my VA compensation cases, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results and level of professionalism he consistently brings to the table. From the very start, he took the time to listen, understand my situation, and guide me through the comp...lex VA compensation process. His knowledge of the system is exceptional, and he always provides clear, actionable advice. What really stands out is his commitment to achieving results. He is responsive, thorough, and always keeps me updated, making sure I understand every step of the process. Thanks to his efforts, I’ve seen positive outcomes that have significantly improved my situation. If you're looking for a lawyer who will fight for you and get things done with the VA, I highly recommend Jason. His expertise and dedication to his clients are truly top-notch.

Jason is awesome. I contacted Jason as soon as I received disappointing news from the VA. I called Berry law and soon after I received a call from Jason. Jason was on the phone with me for about a half hour, he was pleasant to speak with by the way. He asked questions gathered information and ...got the ball rolling. Jaime was awesome also, she answered my emails and returned my phone calls in a timely manner. A few months later I congratulatory call, Jason and Jaime were successful in getting me an increased disability rating. I am grateful to have had Jason and Jaime assist me. Thank you Jason and Jaime Craig M USMC Retired GySgt

  • 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.
