HONOR A VETERAN THIS MEMORIAL DAY SIMPLE WAYS TO GIVE BACK

One of our main passions as attorneys is standing up for the rights of veterans. These men and women of the armed forces served our country with valor and dedication. Yet, when they come home, they have no one to help them with their needs. In some cases, many veterans don’t realize that there is help available. They live with mental and physical complications caused from their time in uniform, and they never receive the treatment they require. In other cases, they apply for benefits and are rejected. We fight to serve this group of people by providing proper representation, but you don’t need to be a lawyer to give back to veterans. Here are two ways you can help.

for the rights of our country and for our freedom. That’s pretty admirable.

OFFER YOUR TIME

The United States was built on the concept of helping others. When our neighbors are in need, we step up to the plate and help them out. It’s that love and caring that makes our nation unique and special. When it comes to veterans, our shelters often go unmanned, without proper clothing or food. One simple way we can all give back is by offering our time. Maybe it’s mowing a lawn for an elderly veteran in your neighborhood, or perhaps it’s giving a jacket to a homeless veteran on our streets. There is always something that can be done, and we, as citizens, are the people to do it. If you’re a veteran and have been denied benefits from the VA, or if you just need general guidance, contact us today. Our team at Obiorah Fields will help in any way possible.

SAY THANK YOU

Taking a simple moment to give thanks can make a world of difference in the life of a veteran. It doesn’t require much to say, “Thank you for your service.” A soldier doesn’t sign up for the military so they can have people thank them. They enlist to stand up for what they believe in. They put their lives on the line
