I was always under the impression that most of these companies that claim to help you navigate difficult paperwork (such as VA benefits or Medicare paperwork, etc) were either scams, or, they did what they advertised for a steep cost, and thus, should be avoided at all costs.
No, you are mistaken at least to some extent. I work in an adjacent field to those mentioned.
There are definitely groups like that (legal aide) which are not scams; I work with them regularly, so I know with certainty that some of these groups help clients attain their desired outcome in cases where they otherwise would not have prevailed. These groups dont usually charge nearly enough to offset a lifetime of benefits from a Federal agency… which is the end goal in many such cases.
So theyre not all garbage. Unfortunately I dont really know how to tell them apart at the outset, though, and listing the ones I know would quickly ruin any persec I may have here.
In my (professional) experience, people with expert help do tend to have better outcomes when dealing with the federal bureaucracy.
I just want to reiterate: if you or a loved one are attempting to overturn an unfavorable decision, (e.g. by the VA regarding disability,) it pays to have help.
The good ones are generally word-of-mouth IIRC. Most veterans I’ve met will happily talk about which specific group helped them get full disability pay, some of them keep a business card near for them nearby.
You’re absolutely right that they don’t charge nearly as much as they net people in the long run. Vets earn that shit and the government counts on them never fighting for it so they have less to pay.
