Veterans Rights' Advocates Call for Attorneys
The Veterans Rights Advocates are searching for attorneys to assist veterans
with there rights in the workplace. If you are an attorney that has
experience or is willing to help veterans with their rights in the workplace,
please go to AskTell to register your name, e-mail, and relevant
background. You must know what it takes to try a case in Federal Court and
understand a veterans rights under VEVRAA or USERRA as a minimum requirement to provide
legal assistance to a veteran in need of a labor lawyer regarding his veterans
rights in the workplace. Knowing how to deal with the OFCCP and/or VETS would make a
lawyer more valuable to veterans legal causes. Some veterans need
specialized legal aid to file appeals.
After searching through 60,000 attorneys around and in Los Angeles, we could
not find an attorney who had provided assistance to a veteran in the
workplace. Also, none of these attorneys knew what the OFCCP did or
meant. In addition, there are about 180,000 practicing attorneys registered
in California alone.
PrepaidLegalServices (PPLS) has been thoroughly investigated and was found to
never have helped a single veteran in the workplace in the federal courts system
under VEVRAA. The PPLS home office in Oklahoma confirmed this fact by not
citing one such case involving a veteran. A large law firm that is a
member of PPLS, stated that they have never gone into the federal courts system
to represent a veteran under VEVRAA. A long term associate member of PPLS
flatly stated that the PPLS lawyers never go up against the federal agencies.
Therefore, the PPLS Google advertising has been removed from this page.
Any attorney listed here will be subject to the following rules:
