Vietnam Veterans' Agent Orange Disability Claims

The U.S. Department of Veterans' Affairs estimates that nearly 20 million gallons of the herbicide known as Agent Orange were used in Vietnam between the years 1961 and 1971. Originally intended only to remove dense foliage providing cover for enemy forces and to diminish the food supplies available to those forces — it soon became clear to veterans, if not the VA, that Agent Orange had other more personal effects.

At Bosley, McKown & Bratch, our lawyers help Vietnam veterans throughout the United States obtain disability benefits for conditions associated with exposure to Agent Orange. As a firm, we offer decades of combined experience with veterans' disability issues and with the Department of Veterans' Affairs. We know the laws and evidentiary requirements. We also have a full-time investigator on our staff and a large network of qualified medical specialists whom we can call on for assistance in cases nationwide.

We are here and ready to help you today. For a free consultation — call us from anywhere in the U.S. at 1-866-974-0705 (toll free). Or contact us online and someone from our office will get back to you shortly.

Agent Orange-Related Conditions

Currently, the VA has acknowledged that a positive association exists between exposure to herbicides such as Agent Orange and the following conditions:

  • Chloracne
  • Diabetes mellitus
  • Porphyria cutanea tarda
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Multiple myeloma
  • Hodgkins disease
  • Non-Hodgkins lymphoma
  • Prostate cancer
  • Chronic lymphocytic leukemia
  • Certain cancers of the lung, bronchus, larynx and trachea
  • Certain soft tissue sarcomas
  • Spina bifida in the children of veterans exposed to Agent Orange

For more information, please see our page on Diseases Associated with Agent Orange.

Important: If you are a veteran and you are suffering from a disability that you believe may be related to an exposure to Agent Orange — even if it is not on the above list — you need to know that any veterans disability benefits you might receive will not start accruing until your application is received. In other words, there is no good reason to wait. For help in making the strongest claim you possibly can — call or contact our attorneys today.
