Why this site is free.
Built by a combat vet.
This site started after a friend hired a claim shark who did next to nothing and didn't help his claims. Then a four-hour call with a battle buddy who deployed to Iraq with me. He was broken, sitting at 0%, with no healthcare. I can't spend that much time helping every veteran. So why not automate it.
This site started as one thing: prep interviews for medical exams.
It has turned into something much bigger — a monster I fund out of my own pocket — built on more than 10,000 quotes, sources, and legal codes, so veterans and their families get a real guide through the system.
It does not cost veterans or their families money. No email harvesting. No data aggregation.
The login exists for one reason: to keep robotic spam from burning the budget that keeps this site free.
DBQprep helps you know what is actually a symptom and how to report it honestly — your worst real day, in your own words. Not a script. Never a performance for a rating. Never coaching.
Free. Built and funded by a disabled combat vet.
Not a VSO. Not affiliated with VA, VBA, or VHA. Not a law firm. Nobody here files a claim. Charging for help with an initial VA claim is illegal. (38 U.S.C. § 5904(c)(1))
