The Veterans Legal Support Clinic (VLSC) at the John Marshall Law School in Chicago is one of the nation's first law school clinics dedicated solely to addressing the legal needs of veterans seeking their benefits from the Veterans Administration (VA). Hundreds of thousands of veterans have returned home from the battlefield with serious life-altering injuries, but many are not receiving the full benefits to which they are entitled. They simply do not have the necessary information and understanding to navigate the complexities of the claims and appeals process of the VA.

The purpose of the VLSC is to assist veterans filing VA benefit claims as well as to provide representation for veterans during the appeals process through their statewide network of pro bono attorneys. The Center is located at 315 South Plymouth Court in Chicago. Their phone number is: 312-427-2737 ext. 346. To learn more, please visit their website which is: www.jmls.edu/veterans
