Authorization of Awards Under 38 U.S.C. 1151 with Warrior Allegiance

 

As veterans transition back to civilian life, they often face a myriad of challenges, including physical and mental health issues resulting from their service. At Warrior Allegiance, our mission is to support these brave men and women by assisting them in navigating the complex world of disability compensation claims. Today, we will delve into the intricacies of Authorization of Awards Under 38 U.S.C. 1151.

Understanding the Prohibition Against Duplication of Benefits

One of the crucial aspects of veteran compensation claims is understanding the prohibition against duplication of benefits. This means that a veteran cannot receive compensation from multiple sources for the same injury or death. For instance, if a veteran receives a settlement from a legal claim arising from their injury and then files a claim for compensation with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for the same injury, the compensation may be offset.

Assistance with Tort Claims

When a veteran is injured under circumstances that may result in entitlement to benefits under 38 U.S.C. 1151, they may also seek compensation through a civil action, known as a tort claim. At Warrior Allegiance, we assist veterans in understanding their rights and options when it comes to tort claims. Whether through trial, settlement, or compromise, we ensure that veterans receive the compensation they deserve for their injuries.

Responsibility for Resolving Tort Claims

Tort claims against the government are resolved by various entities, including the General Counsel, U.S. Attorney General, or District Counsel. The specific circumstances of each case determine who is responsible for resolving the tort claim. At Warrior Allegiance, we work closely with veterans to navigate this process and ensure that their claims are resolved fairly and efficiently.

Determining Offset Effective Dates and Amounts

Understanding offset effective dates and amounts is crucial in determining the compensation a veteran is entitled to receive. At Warrior Allegiance, we provide veterans with expert guidance on navigating these complex calculations. Our goal is to ensure that veterans receive the maximum compensation possible for their injuries, without being deprived of any part of the compensation they rightfully deserve.
