Veterans Benefits Lawyer

You may be able to receive veterans benefits. We can help you figure it out.

We have the knowledge to help you get the most benefits possible. Did you know that a veteran may be able to receive up to $2,120.00 per month towards his or her assisted living or nursing home costs? That’s right, $2,120.00. That’s why you need Meurer & Potter Law Office to help you.

These are things you may not know, but could be a huge benefit that is due you. Another example: did you know that a deceased veteran’s spouse might qualify for up to $1,149.00 per month to pay for her long term care? This is not a service connected disability benefit. If you were in active service for 90 days, one day during wartime and were “other than dishonorably discharged,” you may qualify.

Meurer & Potter Law Office has a veterans benefit attorney who specializes in assisting veterans and their families qualify for this aid and attendance benefit. We love to help you get what you deserve, after you’ve served your country. You need a veterans benefit attorney to find out what you might be missing and help you get it.

At Meurer Law, where our focus is on elder-law, our veterans benefit attorney can assist senior citizens and their families obtain a lesser known benefit, the “Non-Service Connected Pension” aid and attendance benefit. We utilize our knowledge and expertise to help you.

The non-service connected pension, also called the improved pension program, can assist veterans who served during certain war-time periods, obtain money that can help them pay for assisted living, nursing homes, and long term care facilities.

Unlike Medicaid which only reimburses designated, qualified providers for services, this veteran’s benefit comes in the form of a monthly check paid directly to the veteran. This allows choice in providers (including non-spouse family members!) and in what setting (home-care, assisted living, nursing home) the best care is provided.

There are asset and income limitations on this benefit, but with professional planning by our veterans benefit attorney, many veterans can re-position their assets so they qualify.

We will be happy to help you find out if you qualify for these and other veterans benefits. If you qualify, you deserve it, and you should have it!

Every attorney at Meurer Law is an accredited attorney with the Department of Veteran’s Affairs.  And we are ready to help you get your benefits.
