WHY CHOOSE THE ROUSELL LAW FIRM?

You don’t have to hire a VA disability lawyer to appeal a VA decision, but the veteran’s benefits appeal process is complicated, time-consuming, and usually requires years of waiting. The VA-accredited attorneys at Woods & Woods have represented thousands of veterans. We’d like the opportunity to represent you.

1. We know the Evidence you need.

2. We know what benefits you deserve. 

3. We keep track of the paperwork and the deadlines for you. 

4. You don't pay anything unless you win. 

5. You deserve the benefits you earned and a VA disability lawyer who will fight to get them.

2025 VA Disability Rating Calculator for Veterans

If you have multiple service-connected conditions, our free VA disability rating calculator is available to help you estimate your combined VA rating. Figuring out your combined rating can be tricky. Our calculator is designed to help you avoid doing the VA’s complicated math by hand and quickly figure out how much you should be receiving in monthly VA disability benefits. Just read carefully and follow the steps below to calculate your total.

​

We use all of the VA’s current 2025 disability rates and processes, and update the calculator regularly. Please keep in mind, however, that this calculator is a VA disability estimator. It uses up to date information to calculate your VA disability rating, but does not replace a VA official calculation.

Start by selecting the buttons below for any service-connected disability in your arms or legs only. We calculate arm and leg disabilities separately in case the VA’s bilateral factor needs to be applied. Buttons may be selected more than once if needed. For example, if you have two 10% disabilities in your right arm, select the “10%” button under right arm twice.

​

Next, select disability ratings for any other service-connected conditions affecting the rest of your body. These could include mental as well as physical health conditions. If needed, you can erase a selection by clicking on it in the “Disabilities List” section below.

​

Third, select the number of children you have who are under 18. Next, select if you have any dependent children between the ages of 18 and 23. If they are in school or were classified as disabled before they turned 18, they are still considered dependent.

​

Finally, select if you are single or married, and whether you have dependent parents who rely on you financially. Veterans with a 30% or higher rating receive additional money each month for a spouse or dependents.
