Advocates forVA Disability Benefits

"The VA had me by the throat, I was suffocating! The VA finally coughed it up and I can breathe now. Gumps is wicked good at what they do."

"I would like to thank you for all your valuable time and all efforts you made toward helping me with my claim to the V.A."

"Really helped me in a time of need, they got me from a 70 to a 90 and I didn't pay until I saw results"

"Are you all the best of the best or what! I hope one day I get to meet you all. Not only am I getting the best representation ever, my hand will be held in the process, if need be. Thanks team."

"Thank you, Thank you! You have changed the life of my husband Rickey Ned Bloomer, so happy you won a settlement for him. he is a changed man and his depression decreased. He finally has hope for The future but his health is so bad I’m not sure he will live long enough to enjoy the extra money. he has bought a car that he can drive his electric scooter into + have more mobility + he has money in his pocket to do whatever he wants to do He is a conservative person so he will not waste the money. So happy to see him happy, thank you!"

“I rate this firm 200 stars, above the regular stars.”

" I would like to thank Gumps VA Compensation for their professionalism, and timely accomplishments on my case. I highly recommend their services to any veteran having difficulty with their claims."

"I WAS STUCK WITH A 50% RATING WITH THE VA BEFORE I STARTED USING GUMPS COMPENSATION SERVICE. IN A YEAR TIME THEY HAD ME AT 100% RATING! THANK YOU GUMPS COMPENSATION SERIVE FOR GETTING ME WHAT I DESERVE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GUMPS COMPENSATION Service to anyone who having problem getting the rating that they deserve."

"Gumps Team, Thank you for fighting for my recent claim that brings my total disabilities to 100%. Lindsey and Candice have proved their prowess and delivered on their promises."

I just want to say how pleased we are with the services we received from Gumps VA compensation. Mark was immediately granted 90 percent disability after Gumps submitted all the paperwork. The process was efficient and easy for us. The staff at Gumps was always available for any and all questions that we had and very nice and friendly to us. We would highly recommend them to any and all veterans that are struggling with the VA to reach a compensation decision.
Thanks again Gump!

I appreciate what your firm has done for me, and my disability. Before your firm got involved, I was unsuccessful in getting more than 60 percent service connection. However because of your legal efforts with handling my case/claims, I was recently awarded a full 100 percent disability. This would not have been possible without your help

My name is Charles Minor, I just want to say how please I am with the work Lindsey Fordyce and Candice Bennett did on my behalf. I would highly recommend them.

It’s been my pleasure having you help me with my Va claims I can’t believe we got results as quickly as we did I couldn’t have done that without your help

I would like to thank Allen and his crew for a fantastic job in getting my compensation.

I’ve always heard horror stories of how vets would go through programs and would end up getting the runaround after paying thousands of dollars! But with GUMPS VA they are with you every step of the way! I’m am grateful for all they have done and how the help me get 100%! And I didn’t have to pay thousands of dollars! If you’re a vet, go with Gumps VA!

Allan, This award decision has been a long time process. You had faith in me from our initial contact years ago. You kept my claim process moving along even though I was discouraged at times. You knew what to do and when to do it. You and your staff did an outstanding job in the success of receiving this award for my condition that changed my life over 20 years ago. Thank you for everything you and your staff have done. I am grateful for the hard work you have put into this claim for the success that it is. I hope to keep in touch with you and your staff, especially Don, in the future. Sincerely

As for my testimonial Allen Gumpenberger saved my life he did something that no one else could do for me others had tried but failed I am forever indebted to him. He cut through the red tape went straight for the objective and wouldn’t take no for an answer he will always be my man and God bless him and his organization

I would like to thank you once again for your success in the approval of my recent award decision. When we last spoke, you were pursuing other issues on my behalf. This decision took a long time and there were many denials by the VA concerning my cancer.
I was diagnosed with bladder cancer in July 2000. I was operated on shortly thereafter for cancer tumors.
I took sick leave and used vacation pay at the Postal Service through 2001. During this time, there were more cancer surgeries. There were BCG treatments and several operations to try to stop the tumors. In October 2002 I had to have the removal of my bladder, prostate and some small intestine. Many rounds of chemotherapy followed. I did not plan to retire, however I could not support my wife and family on no pay and having to buy my health care benefits in full from the USPS.
I was retired from December 2001 – April 2006 and went to work for the Town of Watertown, as the Deputy Fire Marshal.
After reading over the award decision, I don’t understand why the VA did not go back to when I was first diagnosed with cancer in 2000. The award only went back to August 2005. I realize there is much I do not understand how the VA arrives at the decisions they do, this is not to be taken as disappointment in what you and Allen have accomplished. My gratitude is overwhelming.
My present evaluation is 90% based on 60% for loss of a major organ, 10% for tinnitus, 70% for PTSD, I believe these are correct. In the near future, I was told that I will need reconstructive surgery for reposition of the stoma.
Thank you once again for the help and also for being there when I needed you.

This brief message is to you & all your associates, words cannot express my emotions for your diligence and persistence in believing in me to secure the benefits awarded to me recently, your assistance has been so valuable as I was going nowhere & now the via. Acknowledges, that an award due Thank you & please keep in touch.

Hello Angel, so glad to hear from you. Mr. Held and crew really worked hard and tirelessly on my behalf. Of all my years, I've never had anyone work so hard on my behalf. I can finally start putting my financial life back together. This is the real " Dream Team". Thanks from the bottom of my heart.

I contacted Gumps VA compensation Services after a friend recommended me to do so. I spoke to a representative and she listened to my concerns about health issues that started to occur after my service. They provided me with the information and documentation to fill out and from there they took care of everything. I truly am surprised what they were able to do for me and now I have the benefits that I was originally denied. They truly worked hard for me finding scientific studies to prove my military related health issues. I would like to thank them for everything they have done for me and my family.

From a veteran point of view. We need people like Mr. Held and Ms. Ashley because they care, about us veterans, that put their lives on the line to put a blanket of freedom over our country. There are the ones that are the heroes because they make sure that our veteran and their families are taken care of. I was just a sailor going to sea for twenty (20) of service. When got time for me to retire from the Navy, I did know what was going to happen and how I was going to feed and take care of my family. I had bills to pay, and I was in a lot of pain from the problems that I got from being in the Navy. The only money that was coming in at the time was my military retirement and that was not a lot. Mr. Held and Ms. Ashely help me get 100% disability and it put me in the position to pay my bills and feed my family. Hero - a person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. Mr. Held and Ms. Ashely are heroes and they meet all the qualities of a hero. Thank you, Mr. Held and Ms. Ashely for being my hero

This is Stephen Miller I would like to thank Michael Kaiser very much for all his help with my VA claim. He was there every step of the way whenever I needed him. I would recommend grumps VA compensation services any day. Thank you for all your help.
