We offer a how-to guide that explains the process of applying for a military discharge upgrade or a change in the reason for your military discharge.
We advocate for Bay Area veterans in their VA benefits claims and discharge upgrades. Our attorneys provide one-time assistance and on-going representation to veterans.
We assist with discharge upgrades, VA benefits eligibility, service-connection claims, pension applications, and VA overpayment issues. All former service members residing in the specified locations below are eligible for a free one-time consultation with our attorneys, regardless of era or length of service.
Phone, video, or in-person at our weekly clinics, or Swords' service centers
Please note that due to capacity changes, at times we may need to prioritize more vulnerable veterans including those who are unhoused, lower income, and who experience a mental health condition. We do not assist with GI Bill or Vocational Rehab (VR&E) benefits.
This program is made possible in part by funding from the Bob Woodruff Foundation, which is dedicated to ensuring that our nation’s veterans, service members, and their families — those who stood for us — have stable and successful futures.
If you're a veteran seeking VA benefits, a discharge upgrade, or even just getting copies of your military records, our comprehensive self-help materials may have the information you need.
