The Veteran’s Attorney is a specialized law firm dedicated exclusively to veterans’ disability appeals, led by Thomas P.F. Kiely, a former Navy enlisted sailor, Naval Academy graduate, and retired Army attorney with deep personal and professional military experience. The firm stands out for its unique insider perspective on military culture, operational tempo, and service-related injuries, combined with accredited legal expertise in veterans affairs law.
With a combined 45 years of experience across military, federal government, and legal practice, the team understands the complexities of VA claims and the hesitancy many veterans feel in seeking benefits. They offer tenacious advocacy at all levels of the VA administrative process and work on a contingency fee basis, meaning clients pay nothing unless they win an award of retroactive benefits. The firm is particularly skilled in handling cases involving combat veterans, high-tempo operations, and complex medical and legal issues.
