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!

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!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
