It may have taken many years but Woods & Woods was right there every step of the way. They kept me up to date on everything going on with the case. Im very happy with the outcome would recommend them a thousand times over to friends and family and also to all my fellow veterans. A Big Thank You to Woods & Woods and everyone involved in all the hard work that came with working on my case.

Five stars doesn't seem enough. My experience with Alex at Woods & Woods was outstanding from day one and remained consistent throughout the process. I initially muddled through my intent to file and several service-connected issues with a VSO. She told me my medical records had been "lost", and that I had little to no chance of my conditions ever being approved. By chance, I saw an ad on Face Book for W&W and reached out. Sometimes, you just have to take a deep breath and jump. Four years later, I'm at 100% P&T. Alex worked diligently as a liaison between me and the lawyer assigned to my case and his level of professionalism, compassion and attention to detail was beyond expectation. In a world where we often feel like just a number, Alex made me feel as though I mattered. W&W navigated the arduous task of navigating the VA system and tracking down my military and personal medical records, some back almost 30 years! Employer records, personal statements, C&P exams were all handled with care. After years of phone calls, conversations, tears, frustration and even bouts of angry moments and tears, Alex was that anchor on the end of the line. He returned every phone call, navigated around obstacles with me like a seasoned boat captain on a stormy sea, always reassuring and patient. Living in constant pain, and an extraordinary level of PTSD, I was not always a treat to work with and I honestly can't thank him enough for his consistence. I knew exactly what to expect when I called, and if I left a message, it was always returned. This man did exactly what he said he would do without fail. I recommend W&W to every vet I come in contact with. They did what I was told was impossible. If you've served, contact them. If they say you have a case, believe them. Do exactly what they tell you to do within the timeline they give you. If you don't like the way something sounds, speak up, they listen. The VA system is a mess and very difficult to navigate on our own. I honestly think it's easier for them if we fall through the cracks and give up. Thank you Alex, and the Woods and Woods team, your hard work changed my life.

In 2008 when my husband passed away, I applied for DIC. He had volunteered to join the Army and served two tours in Vietnam. The injuries and health problems he incurred from his service ultimately led to his early passing. After working for a number of years on my own to win an approval of my application for DIC, I experienced denial after denial. I saw no recourse, but to abandon my efforts. Many years later, I learned of some new evaluation standards used by the VA and once again I applied for DIC, this time with the help of an ombudsman from the Veterans Association, Again I received denials. Now, only recently, I heard someone mention their success in getting DIC approval after working with Woods&Woods. I became encouraged and thought I would ask them for a free assessment of my situation. After looking at the details, they were willing to take my case. I was assigned one of their excellent attorneys who did all the work in reapplying for DIC in my behalf. I was not expecting too much success, but with the excellent efforts of the attorney assigned to me, my new application was submitted and approved. The award I received has changed my whole outlook on my husband’s service to our country. I can’t thank Woods&Woods enough for what they did for me and my family.

It seemed like a long shot but I am finally finished with the best ever team from woods and woods we got the results we wanted

Woods & Woods is an awesome firm to have on your side. I have been fighting to get the rating that I deserve for decades and they got it for me in a few months. Their team is professional but very polite. They always kept me informed and made themselves available when I had questions. They treated me as a person, more than a paycheck. I would definitely refer them!!!
