At least 273,766 veterans in Georgia received VA disability compensation at the end of fiscal year 2025. VA does not publish very small county counts, so the true number is a little higher.
That works out to about one accredited attorney or claims agent for every 1,000 people in Georgia receiving compensation, using the reported minimum.
