What Makes CCK Law Different?
Difficult appeals are what our team does.
- A former Veterans Law Judge — A former judge at the Board of Veterans’ Appeals is part of our team.
- Precedent — Over 117 times, CCK Law has argued cases that set legal precedent (defined the laws) affecting millions of veterans.
- Federal court experience — When VA did not get the law right, we can take it to federal court. CCK Law has represented over 18,000 veterans and dependents at the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, and files writs of mandamus with the Veterans Court when a case has stalled at VA.
- Depth — Over 100 individuals at CCK Law are accredited by VA or admitted to practice before the Veterans Court, one of the largest and most experienced teams in veterans law.
- Track record — CCK Law has had favorable outcomes in 98.5 percent of its actions before VA and a 95 percent win rate before the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. (Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.)
- Compensation recovered — CCK Law has recovered over $1 billion for 36,000+ clients since 1999.
Benefits Veterans Often Miss
The largest increases in monthly compensation often come from benefits a veteran has never heard of. A free case evaluation looks beyond the condition VA denied. For example:
- TDIU — Can’t work because of service-related conditions? Total disability based on individual unemployability pays at the 100 percent rate when service-connected conditions prevent substantially gainful employment.
- Special Monthly Compensation — Pays above the 100 percent rate for veterans who need aid and attendance, are housebound, or have certain combinations of disabilities.
- Secondary conditions — Disabilities caused or aggravated by a condition that is already service connected. For example, sleep apnea or depression following a physical injury.
- Mental health ratings — PTSD, depression, and anxiety are rated on occupational and social impairment, not on a diagnosis alone.
- Effective dates and back pay — An earlier effective date can add years of retroactive benefits, and in an older claim the effective date is often the most valuable issue in the file.

... The client relations were exceptional in returning my calls timely. Encounters with all representatives were handled with the utmost professionalism. They explained all processes and procedures to keep me updated and involved with my case. Their knowledge of the law and the VA is beyond compare. Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD should be retained by all veterans seeking compensation. If I were to pursue VA compensation again, I would certainly retain the services of this firm.

I would like to thank the law firm of Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick for all their hard work of helping me to get my rating of 100% VA disability. Every time I was denied they fought for me. I am very pleased and have also referred some of my friends to this great law firm. I thank you so very much.

... Dealing with this organization was easy and professional. My case was handled by not one but a team of lawyers and team experts. They left no card unturned. They were at my disposal any time I contacted them, and they kept me updated all the time. I highly recommend them to all veterans no matter what your disability.
