For nearly 20 years, a Veteran who served during the Iraq war lived with severe PTSD — but was receiving only a minimal disability rating.

He had nearly given up.

Our Veterans Benefits Attorney, Casaundra Johnson, reviewed his file and saw what others had missed. She prepared and submitted a detailed appeal — more than 700 pages of medical records, service history, and legal argument.

The result?
A significantly increased disability rating and substantial backpay for the years he was under-compensated.

When we called him with the news, he said the first thing he was going to do was book a flight to Texas to finally meet his grandson.

This is why we do what we do.

If you believe your VA disability rating does not reflect your condition, you may have options.

Meet Jacob Brandt – Fighting for Injured Workers Across Ohio

Jacob Brandt began his legal journey right here at The Bainbridge Firm as a law clerk during law school. Inspired by the firm’s dedication to helping injured workers through some of the toughest times in their lives, he knew this was the path he wanted to follow.

Today, Jacob is a passionate workers’ compensation attorney who brings that same drive to every case—helping clients secure the benefits and medical care they deserve.

Recently, Jacob helped a client who had lost the use of her right arm due to a workplace injury and stroke in 2003. After years of struggle, Jacob and the team secured permanent total disability compensation—and just this year, won an additional award recognizing her loss of function.

“I want every client to know I’ll fight for their full rights, treat them with respect, and never forget they’re more than just a claim number,” Jacob says.

Before law, Jacob played college football, starting 43 consecutive games and earning All-American honors. He now puts that same dedication into advocating for injured workers across Ohio.

After a devastating work injury, our client was told part of his condition “wasn’t real.” The employer even asked him to resign just to settle.

We refused.
We fought.
And the jury ruled in his favor.

He kept his job. Got his treatment. And finally got justice.
