DVA claims and appeals
One of the most important services RSL LifeCare Veteran Services offers is access to specialist claim advisors for Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) claims and appeals.
This free service gives veterans and their families access to advocates who will navigate the often-complex DVA processes. These advisors can liaise with the DVA on your behalf, collate evidence, complete applications and give you advice.
