Office details and county information checked on 2026-09-23. These guides group services by location and explicitly stated service area; they do not imply every listed office is operated by a county.
A VSO representative can file your claim and represent you at no cost. You still gather the evidence, and arriving organized helps you get more from the appointment.
Ask the office what else it needs. Contact the office even if you are unsure which documents you need.
How Claim Raven works alongside your VSO
Claim Raven is software, not an accredited representative. It does not file claims or represent you. These tools are optional.
“VSO” can mean an organization or a service officer. A local post or chapter does not by itself establish accredited claims service.
Ask who will represent you and check that person in VA’s official search.
