LOD Access

Access without the performance of charity.

Most veterans should work with a VA-accredited attorney — contingency fees mean no upfront cost and full representation. When that path isn't available, we reserve capacity for record review and, when warranted, pro bono opinions.

Tier 1

Viability review

Free

Upload summary and available records. We assess whether an IMO is likely to add probative value before you spend anything.

Tier 2

Pro bono IMO

No fee

One to two cases per month at physician discretion. Merit and need considered. Not first-come-first-served.

Tier 3

VSO & firm co-fund

Shared

Partner organizations and firms may co-sponsor cases that fall outside contingency but deserve review.

Before you apply

  • • We cannot provide legal representation — consider a VSO or contingency attorney first.
  • • Pro bono capacity is limited; not all applicants will be accepted.
  • • An IMO does not guarantee a favorable VA decision.
  • • Intake form coming soon — contact your VSO or attorney to inquire in the interim.
