VetJustice Pro is used by VA-accredited representatives: veterans service officers, claims agents and attorneys. You can’t use it yourself, but your representative can run your records through it, see what may be missing from your claim, and review and file everything with you.

Your representative decides what to file. VetJustice Pro can’t promise a rating, and nothing goes to VA without your representative.
To grant service connection, VA needs three things: a current diagnosis, an event, injury or illness during service, and a medical link between them — the “nexus.” Records usually show the first two; the link is often what’s missing. A nexus letter is a qualified medical professional’s written opinion that your condition is at least as likely as not caused or made worse by your service, or by a condition VA already rates, with the reasons. VetJustice Pro drafts one from your records; your representative has a medical professional review, edit and sign it. More about nexus letters, with an example letter.
Sometimes an old VA decision was simply wrong on the record VA already had. For example, VA denied your knee claim in 1985 because “service records show no knee injury,” but your service treatment records, already in VA’s file, show a knee injury on two or three sick-call visits. If those records would have changed the decision, your representative can ask VA to correct it as if it had been right from the start, which can mean back pay to the original date.
