Brian M. Casey

Practice Focus

Brian M. Casey is a Veterans Disability Attorney at Berry Law who helps Veterans pursue VA disability benefits and compensation. VA-accredited and admitted to practice in Alabama, Brian supports former servicemembers navigating claims and the rules that shape them, including the VA’s definitions, rating process, and submission criteria. Based in Crossville, Alabama, he brings legal training, military service, and firsthand experience with the benefits system to this work. His focus is helping clients understand the process and pursue the benefits they earned through service.

Brian’s perspective is informed by his own decision to seek VA benefits. Some of his claims were approved, while others he believed should have been approved were denied. The experience brought both relief and frustration, and it motivated him to learn more about how the VA evaluates claims. He sought to better understand the system’s definitions, rating criteria, and basic requirements for a claim, and recognized how difficult it can be for Veterans to know what information belongs in a submission or how to respond when a claim is denied. Because he has navigated those questions himself, Brian brings a personal understanding of the uncertainty many Veterans face while pursuing benefits.

Role at Berry Law

Brian joined Berry Law to contribute positively to the Veterans community and help fellow Veterans access benefits earned through their service. At the firm, he works with clients pursuing VA benefits, compensation, and disability claims. He describes serving clients in direct terms: helping Veterans stand up for themselves in the VA benefits process. That sense of responsibility anchors his work and keeps the focus on the person behind each claim, not simply the paperwork.

The firm’s Veteran-focused structure is a meaningful fit for Brian. Berry Law is founded and led by Veterans, and Brian values working in an environment where colleagues share an appreciation for the service of Veteran clients. The firm’s mission and values reflect the community he hoped to serve when he entered the practice. Brian’s personal experience with the claims system helps him recognize why clear guidance matters, and he brings that perspective to his work with former servicemembers seeking benefits.

Service to Veterans

Before becoming an attorney, Brian served eight years in the Army National Guard as an interrogator, military occupational specialty 97E. His service gives him a firsthand connection to the Veteran community he now serves. Combined with his own VA claims experience, it informs a practice grounded in respect for the service members he represents and an appreciation of how much the benefits process can demand of them. Brian is grateful for Veterans’ contributions and sees helping them pursue the benefits they earned as an extension of his commitment to that community.

The path from pursuing his own VA benefits to helping other Veterans has shaped Brian’s understanding of the work. He knows that a denial can leave a Veteran unsure how to proceed, and that learning the rules can be a significant part of the process. For Brian, serving clients means helping fellow Veterans stand up for themselves and pursue the compensation and benefits they earned through service. He considers their success personal and purposeful and keeps that mission central to his work.

Education & Training

Brian received an undergraduate degree in Criminal Justice from American Military University in 2014. He began law school in 2021 and completed his legal studies in 2025. He is admitted to the Alabama Bar and is accredited by the VA. His education and credentials support his Veterans Disability practice, while his military background and personal experience with the VA system give him a direct perspective on many of the challenges clients encounter.
