Our Services

Navigating the complexities of the VA system can be a daunting task, especially for Veterans approaching VA benefits for the first time. The VAC stands ready to assist and guide you on your journey, from start to finish. We offer a variety of services including VA disability claims advocacy, financial assistance, burial benefits, and survivor’s benefits.

All services are offered pro bono, or at no charge to the Veteran. Veterans and their families will never be charged a fee or asked for payment, even for the most intensive claims representation.

Professional Advocacy

Veterans filing disability claims for the first time can utilize the personalized services of our Veteran Service Officers to research, compile, and submit a claim for compensation. In addition to initial claims, we stand ready to take action on wrongfully adjudicated claims by providing comprehensive services for administrative appeals. Should the appeal require the work of a specialist, our Superintendent, a licensed attorney, will work with and represent you in the higher courts, such as the CAVC, CAFC, or even SCOTUS.

Assistance

The VAC works hand in hand with the Lake County government and individual townships within the county to provide assistance to Veterans. Whether it’s assistance for utilities, mortgage payments or emergency shelter, we will be here to lend a helping hand during difficult times.
