Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Mental Health – PTSD, Adjustment Disorder, Anxiety, Depression, Stress
If you’re reading this you may well be one of the many thousands of servicemen and women that served in conflicts around the world including the Falklands, Iraq, Bosnia, and Afghanistan to name but a few. Many of you paid a heavy price for serving in these war zones and the effects on your mental health has resulted in thousands of service personnel developing a range of conditions including PTSD.
There is no need for us to outline the symptoms of PTSD because you’ve probably been through endless assessments for the diagnosis, you are very knowledgeable in the treatment of it, and you continue to live with it. What we can help you with is the process of claiming compensation for these various mental health conditions through the AFCS or WPS.
How we can help you
Mental Health claims are dealt with very differently by Veterans UK depending on whether you use the AFCS or WPS routes. Under the AFCS, which applies to those who served after 06/04/2005, very specific supporting medical evidence is needed and if you fail to follow the regulations your claim will automatically be declined.
If you prefer to have a chat before starting your online form, we offer a free consultation where we can advise you on your eligibility as we see it. Arrange a call back now.
Taking the right approach is therefore crucial. Please don’t go it alone, and don’t take advice from people that don’t know how the scheme really works, because the likelihood is that you’ll be very disappointed when your claim fails on a technicality. We can assist you in completing an AFCS or WPS application within our online secure server which you can do using your PC or a mobile device. Once completed we will carry out a review of your claim form and advise you if anything needs to be added, amended, or removed to present a strong case.
