Will Your Lawsuit Settlement Affect Your VA Benefits?

The simple answer is no. If you receive benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs and were injured in an accident, you can still file a claim against the at-fault party for damages. Any settlement or jury award you received from the negligent party will not affect your VA benefits.
