DIC CLAIMS SUPPORT

If you are a widow of a veteran who was exposed to toxic water at Camp Lejeune, you may be eligible for Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) from the VA. However, getting DIC is not easy. The VA often denies claims from widows of Camp Lejeune veterans, even if their husbands died from illnesses related to the water contamination.

That’s why we at LEAWs have partnered with Jelks Veteran’s Services to help you navigate the DIC process and appeal any previous denials. We understand how important it is for you to stay informed and updated on your claim status. We chose Jelks Veteran’s Services as our partner because we saw how passionate Andrea is about fighting for the rights of veterans and their families. Andrea will not give up until you get the benefits you deserve.

We know that many widows feel overwhelmed and frustrated by the VA system and decide to give up on their claims. We don’t want to see any widow miss out on the benefits that their husbands earned by serving their country.

We also want you to know that your husband does not have to have one of the presumptive illnesses listed by the VA to qualify for DIC. If you can show that Camp Lejeune water was the cause of your husband’s death, you can get your claim service connected and receive DIC. It may not be easy, but it is worth the fight and we are here to support you.
