Once the Board of Veterans Appeals has denied a claim with which a veteran is dissatisfied, the next step is to file an appeal with the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. The appeal must be filed within 120 days of the mailing date on the Board decision. Unlike appeals to the Board, the Court cannot review new evidence and only reviews the record that was created before the Board made its decision. At this stage, the VA has attorneys to represent its side of the case and veterans should have legal representation for their side. Our firm represents hundreds of veterans from around the country in the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. We have argued many cases to the Court. Our Washington, DC office is located near the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims.
