Lawmakers urge crackdown on veteran claim ‘sharks’
A group of 43 members of Congress (42 Democrats, 1 Republican) sent a letter on Dec. 10, 2025 to the VA, FTC and CFPB urging enforcement action against unaccredited companies charging veterans to file VA disability claims, citing federal rules that require free, VA‑accredited assistance. The move follows NPR reporting that Florida‑based Trajector Medical used a robo‑dialer to access VA claim updates via the veterans’ hotline and billed veterans — sometimes when it wasn’t responsible for the benefit increase — a practice the company denies is unlawful.
