What Our Clients Say

You want him in your corner!

Simon was perpetually communicative, informative, and patient. I know I asked the same 5 questions a dozen times, yet Simon and his team were always able to help me out. He saved me from losing my benefits, that the VA previously denied, and helped me apply for benefits I was previously scared to ask for. 10/10 — Former Client

I had the pleasure of working with Simon Kelly when I hired him to help with my VA Disability claim. I had no luck with the VA, everything came back not service connected. He was able to get my disability approved within a year. He was very helpful and kept me informed the whole time with updates. I highly recommend him. - Former Client

Veteran Law!

In the beginning when I started this journey to navigate thru the difficult VA process, I was confused and lost hope in getting help. Found other agencies that just did not want to listen to my real issues and ailments acquired by my military service. They just wanted a payday. At that moment I gave up, my fight was over... He and his team listened and gave me what steps I needed to get what we veterans earned and deserves. A million thanks to Simon. I could never navigated thru the VA without their support and assistance. Now I am in the hundro club! Hooah! — Tana

Meet simon

Simon Kelly is a lawyer, former paratrooper, Afghanistan veteran, and the person you want in your corner when you’re navigating the VA disability benefits process.

After serving in the military, Simon decided to put his experience to work helping fellow veterans understand their options and fight for the benefits they’ve earned. He’s based in Louisville, Kentucky, where he lives with two cats, one extremely silly dog, and what is probably an unreasonable amount of coffee.

When he’s not working, you’ll usually find Simon enjoying rainy days, eating candy, wearing his favorite color (orange, naturally), or pretending he has time to read.

He’s a veteran, a lawyer, a Louisville local, and a firm believer that getting help with your VA benefits shouldn’t require learning an entirely new language first.
