Paul Stockwell, a 63-year-old veteran and former military police officer, shared his experience battling the Veterans Administration (VA) for disability benefits. After years of pain, medical issues, and bureaucratic obstacles, he found attorney Jamie Resch and the team at Conviction Solutions, who helped him secure the benefits he deserved. Paul expressed deep gratitude, saying that Jamie and his team changed his life by handling his case with speed, professionalism, and compassion—accomplishing in a year what he had struggled with for over eight.
