About Jason
Biography
I handle VA disability claim appeals.
As a combat veteran, I've watched a lot of friends, comrades, and even some family members go through a whole lot, not only while in service but afterward. It's a lucky thing that we have an organization as good as the Veterans Administration. But, as good as it is, it has its faults and a lot of vets fall between the bureaucratic cracks. It's my job to help them out and I'm very happy to do so.
I got into law to help people, and I've been lucky enough to make a career out of it.
