Hello. I was wondering about what is going on at a hearing. Can you explain this to me, please?
================
Of course. You and the judge will have a conversation. The judge will listen to your testimony and may ask you a few questions.
What if I have someone else with me?
A representative may help you at the hearing.
================
Good, I will bring my grandson with me. He's a good boy. By the way, can I do anything about a board decision? There's one I don't quite agree with.
Do you disagree with the Board's decision and have new and relevant evidence that supports your case?
Yes, I do. Very much.
In that case you can file a Supplemental Claim. You can also appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims.
================
And which options do I have to appeal a judge?
If you want a Veterans Law Judge to review your case as quickly as possible,  you should choose a Direct Review.
================
What if I have new evidence? My grandson helped me gather information that can be presented to support my claim.
You have the option to add new evidence for a judge to review. You'll have to submit this evidence within 90 days from the date VA receives your Board Appeal form.
