270,000 families owed $165m due to Veterans Affairs' underpayment in disability benefits and pensions; class-action lawsuit, $817m settlement.
Lawyers seek 270,000 families owed money due to Veterans Affairs' $165m underpayment. A class-action lawsuit against Veterans Affairs has been launched after it was found the government improperly calculated disability benefits and pensions for its clients, starting in 2003. A $817m settlement has been reached, but some families of eligible veterans may miss out on payments if their surviving family members don't file a claim.
