  • Lost at the Board of Veterans’ Appeals? Try THIS Before Giving Up
    Sep 19 2025

    As a VA-accredited attorney, I'm here to assist you with your legal needs. Schedule a consultation today: https://calendly.com/vetlawoffice

    Denied at the Board of Veterans’ Appeals? Don’t give up just yet.

    In this episode, VA-accredited attorney and Army combat veteran Ed Farmer breaks down a powerful, but often overlooked, option: filing a Motion for Reconsideration.

    👉 This episode covers: - What a Motion for Reconsideration is and how it works - When the Board might agree to review your case - The two-stage process (Board chairman + panel of judges) - What counts as an “obvious error in law or fact” - How new service records can change your outcome - Why appealing to the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims is often more effective

    Using real-world examples from his practice, Ed explains when this strategy makes sense and why having experienced legal guidance is critical.
