What can the lawyers at Woods & Woods do for you?
VA disability compensation
Our primary area of practice at Woods & Woods is VA disability compensation. U.S. veterans facing debilitating health issues caused by their service often struggle to get the full benefits the government owes them. They may find themselves in a frustrating back and forth with the VA for years seeking what is due to them for their service and sacrifice.
That’s where the accredited VA disability lawyers at Woods & Woods come in. We know the VA’s process, forms, and procedures, and we want to help you get the disability benefits you deserve. Contact us today for a free consultation. If we take your case, you won’t pay us unless you win.

Dependency and Indemnity Compensation
Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) is a VA benefit for surviving spouses, dependent parents, and dependent children of a veteran whose death is related to military service. If you are a widow or other survivor of a veteran who died in service or because of a service-connected health issue, even years or decades later, you could be owed DIC payments from the VA. Our attorneys have helped hundreds of survivors nationwide get their DIC benefits. Contact us today for a free consultation.
Social Security Disability Insurance
Social Security Disability Insurance, or SSDI, is a federal program that offers monthly compensation for eligible individuals who cannot work due to their mental or physical disabilities. Much like VA disability, many people who apply for SSDI may find themselves battling the government for their full benefits. An SSDI lawyer who is familiar with the processes, necessary forms, and best steps to take can help simplify and expedite the process. If you’re seeking help with SSDI, contact us today.
