VA Battle Buddies

Jason and Berry Law handled my VA claim and appeals which resulted in my receiving a significant award. I could never have handled the appeals process and VA roadblocks that led to this positive win. Thank You Jason.

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!

A US Veteran-Focused Lawyer

If you want a US veteran-focused law firm contact Jason Thomas at Barry Law. Not only did Jason agree to represent me on a previously denied claim, after review of my case he recommended that I file for things Veteran Affairs overlooked. While I haven’t heard the outcome of the original claim yet, ...I’ve already received a substantial bump in my disability rating due to the other things. Trust Jason with your case and you won’t be left behind!

Gets results!

He took the time to explain the process, the timeline and what the goal was and I appreciate that. The appeal worked and I got the results I needed.

Staff Sargeant

I would like to start off by thanking attorney Jason R. Thomas for the timely appeal he made for my family in order for us to lead a more normal life. When you become submerged due to pain and depression it's good to know you have someone you can turn to in order to make you feel whole again. I can... only say, without attorney Thomas' help my case wouldn't have been as successful. My family and I have waited a long time for a final 100% rating and we got it thanks to attorney J.R. Thomas & Berry Law Firm.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
