What Are Claims Sharks?
Claims Sharks are predatory actors that seek to profit from a veteran's confusion, delay, or lack of access to trusted support. Some charge excessive fees, make misleading promises, or pressure veterans into arrangements that are not in the veteran's best interest.
What Veterans Should Know
Veterans can seek help from accredited VSOs, accredited claims agents, and accredited attorneys. Many trusted organizations provide no-cost support. TurboVets Foundation helps educate veterans and points them toward trusted resources.
