Hill & Ponton, P.A.

On YouTube · Hill & Ponton, P.A., a nationwide VA-accredited veterans disability law firm — this is a law firm’s channel, including its weekly live Q&A and “Tactical Claims” series.

A deep, plain-spoken VA disability library — roughly 3,000 videos and about 100,000 subscribers — from a firm that handles nothing but veterans’ cases. Its recent “Tactical Claims” series is built for this site’s readers: C&P exam mechanics, rating protections, and the firm’s reporting on VA wrongly closing tens of thousands of appeals. New videos land daily, and attorneys answer veterans’ questions live every week.

Why we carry them. It shows the appeals fight from inside the hearing room — including the mass closed-appeals scandal — in a working law firm’s own words.
