Mr. Luke was amazing to deal with. He was prompt in responses. He and his team were always available for questions. Via text, voice, or email I was never left in the dark. To say it was a pleasure to work with Luke and his team is a gross understatement. I will be recommending him and his team as long as I am able.
-Jeremiah
What a great experience with Luke and his staff. I was previously with another Vet agency but left due to poor support. From day 1 with Luke and 4Vets I was made to feel important, and they made my upgrade so easy. Thank you.
-David
I cannot say enough about how appreciative I am, and my family is, to have had the professional guidance of Luke and the whole 4Vets Consulting team while navigating the Veterans Administration (VA). Before payment, and during the initial consultation with Luke, he reviewed my information and the facts I presented then gave an honest assessment of the situation which ended up being 100% accurate. After discussing expectations and making the decision to move forward, I experienced a clear and streamlined process that took the daunting task of navigating the VA system and made it easy. I am in a customer service-oriented career field and the customer service that I experienced with Luke and the 4Vets Consulting team was exceptional. I highly recommend Luke and the 4Vets Consulting team to all Veterans seeking help with navigating the difficult waters of the VA!
-David
Luke and his team are exceptional, and they were there with me every step of the way. I am very thankful that they instilled the confidence in me to file. Luke showed genuine concern in responding quickly and with professionalism to all emails and phone calls. I highly recommend that you at least give them a call to give them the opportunity to answer your questions.
-Scottie
Luke and his medical team are top notch in helping veterans receive their earned benefits. He communicates thoroughly, provides flexibility in pay options, and was always available when I needed to speak with him. If you are tired of battling the VA and its broken system, give 4Vets Consulting a chance. I give 4Vets Consulting 5 stars! Thanks again Luke!!
-Jen
Thank you 4Vets! Your team made it easy to file an increase in my disability pay. Due to the backlog at the VA, it's been one year since I put in my intent to file my claim and six months after submitting my records and medical evaluation, but the VA finally increased my disability from 50% to 80%.
-Buddy
I was referred by a fellow veteran who described his experience with Luke and his team as "easy and positive." My friend was spot on! From my initial meeting with Luke, through the awarding of my disability increase, my experience was just that, "easy and positive!" All the instructions and paperwork provided were easy to follow and when I had a question, Luke answered it within reasonable time. Some of my veteran friends who started their own claims prior to me, are STILL awaiting an answer. Understanding not every claim is typical, I felt Luke and his team were administratively sound and I felt it was one of the main reasons my case was awarded the increase in a short period of time. I would recommend Luke and his team to any veteran with disability increase questions! BRAVO ZULU, Luke!
-Geoffrey
A friend of mine, who had a positive experience working with Luke and 4Vets Consulting, reached out to me because he was aware of my difficulties in resolving certain claims. Although I was initially hesitant to restart the process, Luke provided me with reassurance and guided me through each step. Throughout the entire process, Luke remained accessible via email, text, or phone. As a result of his efforts, my rating improved significantly from 80% to 100% P&T within a span of four months. I am grateful for taking a chance on Luke's services, and I firmly believe that he genuinely cares about his clients and strives to achieve the best possible outcomes for them.
-James
I recently had the pleasure of working with 4Vets Consulting for consulting services, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation to the implementation of their recommendations, Luke Bourn at 4Vets Consulting demonstrated unparalleled expertise and dedication. Luke took the time to understand my specific needs and provided tailored solutions that not only met but exceeded my expectations. His commitment and accessibility is truly commendable, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone seeking top-notch disability consulting. With 4Vets Consulting you can trust that you're in capable hands every step of the way.
-Carson
I highly recommend Luke and his team at 4Vets Consulting. From the time my claim was received by the VA, February 4th, 2024 to receiving my decision letter May 21st, 2024. I went from 70% to 100%. Luke and his team took all the hard work out of the process of filing a claim and made it easy.
-Jonathon
Big thanks to Luke and his 4Vets team for helping to make my VA claim for increase a success. It's not an understatement to say that the results are life changing. Luke was awesome every step of the way from the free consultation through all of the twists and turns during my claim journey. Whether I contacted him by phone, text, or email, Luke was right there when I needed him to provide the expert guidance, advice, and instruction necessary for a positive outcome; I could not have done this without his help. I was referred to Luke by a friend and I would highly recommend 4Vets to any of my fellow veterans that need to file a VA claim. Thanks Luke!
-Ron
I highly recommend Luke and the team at 4Vetsteam Consulting!
Luke was recommended to me by a co-worker this past year regarding a relook on my VA disability rating. I was a bit anxious about resubmitting my disability claim, but I contacted Luke to see if there was merit in doing so. He reviewed my disabilities and allayed my concerns by educating and stepping me through the process. He was thorough and knowledgeable, succinctly answering all my questions in a timely manner!
The process, which included completing a DBQ (questionnaire), doctor’s appointment, and disability compensation claim submission took ~4 months to complete. The claim itself only took 3 days for the VA to review and decide on, which bumped my rating from 90% to 100%. Interestingly enough though, the VA contacted me the day after my submission requesting I schedule an additional C&P exam by a VA contractor. I reached out to Luke for help and he immediately put me in contact with their legal team, stepping-in to provide timely and accurate guidance which prevented me from scheduling and completing the additional exam. I have no doubt my timeline would have been extended had I not received the team's quick support and I would still be working through this process.
In the end it was phenomenal work by Luke and 4Vetsteam Consulting…don’t hesitate to put your trust in them if you’re looking for help in your endeavors!
-Lance
I would like to start this review with a huge thank you to Luke. He was patient and kind with me throughout this entire process. Whenever I had a question or concerns he responded immediately. Thank you again Luke for making the process painless.
-Desiree
Luke, thanks for all of the help with the review of my VA disability claim. 4VETS and you both made the whole process very easy. All of the instructions you provided on how to contact the VA to start the intent to file notification as well as how to fill out the forms couldn't have been easier. Arranging for the doctors visit was seamless. The directions for uploading my documents to the VA website were very thorough and easy to follow. My rating jumped from 60% to 100% so the results speak for themselves. Once again thanks for guiding me through what could have been a difficult process but wasn't.
-Mark
I highly recommend 4Vets Consulting, LLC for any veteran seeking to increase their VA disability rating. Luke was my personal 4Vets consultant throughout the process and I found him to be friendly, knowledgeable and easy to communicate with from day one. Luke guided me with step-by-step instructions and was quick to answer any questions I had. He consistently followed up with me after each process benchmark, throughout the wait as the VA reviewed my case, and even after my VA claim was successfully closed. Luke was my battle buddy all the way to the end. THANK YOU Luke and 4Vets Consulting!! You guys rock!!
-John
From day one Luke and his team are absolutely amazing. Luke’s knowledge of the process and hospitality was well received. I highly recommend Luke and his team for anyone needing assistance with their VA rating.
-Frank
I cannot thank Luke and his team enough for helping me increase my VA Disability rating. Over an 18-month period, Luke’s medical team was able to point out some new health problems associated with my service connected disabilities that many years later was getting worst and still causing pain to my hips and my back. They were able to add some of these new associated problem to the Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ) to help justify the need to increase my rating. Unfortunately, after submitting my new DBQs to the VA, they denied everything telling me because I did not see their VA doctors, they considered it a no show and denied all of my new claims. I immediately contacted Luke to tell him what the VA was saying. Within a couple of hours, his legal team was able to help me send a new form to the VA reminding them that it was okay for me to use another doctor that was licensed but not associated with the VA, to help create my new DBQs. With this new form, my case was elevated up to a higher level review board that agreed that I was able to use a doctor that was not associated with the VA. Through out this 18 month roller coaster, Luke and his team was incredibly supportive and always offered good advice and explained the process before I had to make a decision.
Luke is very good at what he does for our Veterans. His knowledge about how the VA works is outstanding. If you are a veteran that’s been retired for a while and are still having pain from your original service connected problems, I’d highly recommend Luke and his team to help you increase your rating based on the fact that you are still living through the pain that was created because of your service to our country. That pain is not going to get better and it is still affecting your quality of life. The only thing I wish I had done different was to call Luke earlier. I’ve dealt with a lot of pain and a minimal disability rating for almost 20 years. This can be a game changer for you like it has been for me and my family. Give Luke a call to see what opportunity may be available to you.
-William
I had Luke help me with getting my VA increased, everything that he told me to expect happened, Luke and his team were great, they were available when I needed. All I had to do was follow the directions provided and received the increase. I would definitely recommend Luke and his team.
-Darryl
I recently worked with Luke, a representative from 4Vets Consulting, to increase my disability benefits. I found the entire process to be smooth and enjoyable. The team provided me with clear and unambiguous instructions on what actions to take, followed up with me to ensure that everything was in order, and worked with me until the end of the process. I found it particularly reassuring that every time I called or texted, Luke personally returned my call or text.
I strongly recommend Luke and his team at 4Vets Consulting. They exhibited a high level of professionalism and expertise, and I am grateful for the positive change they have made in my life. I cannot express enough gratitude for the assistance they provided and would highly recommend their services to anyone seeking to maximize their disability benefits.
-Sam
Luke and his team were invaluable, they were patient with me and helped me through the entire process! Highly recommend!
-Jim
Luke and his team put forth the extra time and effort needed to ensure that I had everything I needed to submit a thorough claim! Highly recommend reaching out to Luke!
-Adam
I would refer Luke to anyone! He was extremely helpful and answered all of my questions and believe me, I had a lot of questions! He was available through text which was very convenient. I can#'t express enough how helpful and knowledgeable he is and genuinely just wants to help veterans.
-Emily
Highly recommend this service, it took a bit but an awesome DBQ and a great letter from them helped me out. They answered any and all questions I had! I was re-rated just like they said. I feel fortunate that they that I found them!!
-Scott
Big shout out to Luke and 4Vets Consulting! I was very hesitant to poke the bear, as they say, but Luke#'s professionalism, process and candor from day 1 and throughout was exemplary. Thank you Luke for your efforts in helping vets. I highly recommend Luke and 4Vets Consulting to any vet pursuing VA disability rating increases via top notch DBQ's and Nexus letters.
-Scott
Luke and his team at 4Vets Consulting are very knowledgeable of the VA process. They helped me get to a 100% rating and were there to assist and answer any questions throughout the entire process. If you need help with the VA, I highly recommend Luke and his team!
-Shawn
Thank you Luke and 4Vets Consulting for your awesome work! I am so grateful for the work you did for me and so many others. Fellow Vets, don't wait another day to call Luke if you have a service-connected condition. It's worth it!
-Mark
Luke was amazing. He was easy to talk to and made me very comfortable in sharing my story with him. It took longer than expected to fill out the paperwork (I can be a terrible procrastinator). He would check in with me every few weeks to see if I needed anything. I loved that he wasn't pushy about it, he truly had my best interest at heart. The results were more than I imagined and I am so very grateful and appreciative to have a company like this offering this service to our vets.
-Felicia
Luke and his team were absolutely amazing. He helped look over my files and broke down everything for me so I could understand what was going on and how we could move forward. Even the doctors I had my apts with were extremely nice and supportive, which is quite the change from what I#'ve had in the past. Even with hiccups along the way, Luke knew exactly what to do and even reached out to his team to see if they had heard of my particular case and how we could overcome the issue and move forward. I don#'t ever think there was a time Him or the team weren#'t available for me. He always responded super fast to my emails/calls/texts. I have recommended him already and will continue to do so in the future.
-Molly
Luke and team were absolutely incredible! Very quick communication and easy to follow steps. Extremely easy and comfortable to talk to. He was able to answer all of my questions and would even send emails with requested information while on the phone. They would also follow up to see if I heard anything from the VA and give guidance on how to proceed if I hadn't. Cannot recommend them enough, definitely give them a call if you're even considering filing. I'll admit I was hesitant at first after hearing horror stories of vets getting scammed by using companies to help with their disability benefits but Luke and team are absolutely incredible and worth every bit. They've changed the lives of my whole family by helping us get our benefits and I couldn't be more thankful!
-Justin
Having Luke and his team in your corner as you navigate the VA claims process in invaluable. They were with me every step of the way, had great advice and were very knowledgeable about what I needed to do in order to have a successful claims submission with the outcome I was looking for. I highly recommend using them if you are still going through the claims process.
-AJ
Luke and his Team are absolutely amazing. He got me from 30% to 90% in just a few months. I was stuck there with no hope since 2015 until I found Luke. 10/10 recommend their services to anyone and thank you all again!
-Ryan
Saying that Luke and his team are amazing is an understatement. I used 4Vets Consulting for my request for increase and received the results I wanted. Luke assisted me every step if the way and informed me of so much! This man is absolutely the best, and his mission to help other Veterans through the claims process is sincerely genuine. After all, he is a Veteran himself so he knows what you deserve! I cannot thank Luke and his team enough for what he has done for me and my family. HE IS THE BEST!!!!!
-Nathan
Luke and his team were amazing. Very easy to communicate with, everything was easy to understand and made the entire process smooth. For the exact results I was hoping for and the process was actually extremely fast! Highly recommended!!
-Victor
I never thought it was possible to get increase that Luke and his team helped happen. They went over all my records and showed me the things that were overlooked in my previous claims that weren#'t being looked at, and sent me to a doctor that was more thorough than past doctors. Luke#'s customer service is superb in communicating, and following up. He will guide you through the steps of navigating the sometimes complex VA claim system to get you the rating you deserve. I am forever grateful.
-Robert
I was lost in who to trust and did not know if I should trust anyone with my case. Mr. Luke came highly recommended by a friend and coworker that gave Mr. Luke a glowing review. After speaking with Mr. Luke with a free non rushed consultation I took a few days to think it over. I called him up and have not regretted it. Professional, attentive, passionate, and most importantly, he got results. 10 out of 10 you could not trust a better man and team.
-JD
2023
I was leery at first when I heard of this guy who helps vets through the increase process. I thought I needed a VSO. After talking to Luke at 4Vets and researching his business, I saw he was a legit business and decided to take the chance. Working with the VA can be difficult on your own, and he really knew his stuff! He helped me understand the process clearly, helped me realize issues I had been dealing with for decades were actually related to my service connection, and walked me through every step. He always answered my phone calls and emails, and followed up regularly to make sure all was well. Today I got the news, a substantial increase that better reflects the pain I've been living with and my deteriorating conditions. Thank you Luke and 4Vets for helping fellow vets navigate the convoluted VA system to get what we need! This increase will be life changing and I couldn't have done it without you!!
-GW
For years I went back and forth with the VA concerning my disability with very little satisfaction. I finally started with Luke and his team January 5, 2023 and had everything submitted July 25, 2023. My results came back November 30th. I'm ecstatic. I had given up hope of any success with the VA. Luke was my final hope. The process was simple and easy. Luke knows exactly what questions to ask me and what the VA is looking for. I don't know why I waited so long.
Thank you Team Luke.
-Gene
I was fortunate to be connected with Luke from 4Vets Consulting. I had been working to increase my disability rating for several years to no avail and increasing frustration with the process. After contacting Luke and working with him and his team, he was able to quickly review my past service connected ratings and steer me in the correct direction and plan of resubmission. After 3 months post resubmission with 4Vets I was increased from 80% service connected to 100% service connected T&P. I can not state this strong enough, Luke and his team are truly a god send to me, so grateful.
-Michael
Recommend to any Vet needing assistance with VA claims 10/10. Luke is the man!! Navigating through the VA process is intimidating and a major headache. I've put going for an increase off for nearly 7 years, I got into contact with Luke and he guided me through every step of the process and he was always a call or text away. I started the process back in September and this morning I woke up to my increase and I am extremely satisfied and happy with the services I received from 4Vets Consulting.
-Travis
I left the Army in 2021 and had been trying to settle my VA rating for two years with multiple persons / entities attempting to aid me in the filing process. For context, I had worked with nonprofits, sought legal assistance, and spoke with multiple personnel to no avail. I had given up on my filing but fortunately I was recommended Luke (4Vets Consulting) through a friend and decided to explore that route. The first contact always creates hesitancy as Luke's services are fee based, however, our initial consultation was very transparent (he wouldn't take me on as a client if he wasn't positive he could help) and productive and I decided to secure his help. Luke has a system that is effective at understanding the nuances of the VA system and provided exceptional services. He was very communicative, efficient, professional, and easy to work with. The process was secure and he walks you through every step as there are highly specific details and nuance that the VA requires. The time requirement on my part was very reasonable with only a few hours put into paperwork / administrative work and the medical appointments were scheduled and coordinated easily. The results of my inputs and the medical appointment was a highly detailed medical document packet that outlined everything the VA needed to update their decision on my rating. The process took approximately 3 months from meeting Luke to a rating increase which anyone who has ever filed with the VA knows is exceptionally fast. I think my anecdotal experience with Luke speaks to the professional and effective system that he has in place to help Veterans.
I strongly recommend and I appreciate the help
Thank you,
-Steven
When the VA attempted to lower my disability rating from 80 to 70 percent, a friend recommended 4 VETS CONSULTING and provided me with Luke's contact information. I contacted Luke and was pleased to hear him say, "I can help you!" Luke guided me through the entire claims process with ease, providing step-by-step instructions, answering all of my questions and concerns, and making himself readily available through email, phone, and text. His knowledge and expertise were invaluable in achieving a positive outcome, and I am now officially rated as 100 percent disabled. I am grateful to Luke for changing my life and highly recommend him to anyone in need of VA claim assistance.
-Ammar
I was scrolling through Facebook about a year ago and this 4VetsConsulting ad came though my thread and decided to click on it. After reading a little about what 4VetsConsulting did as a service to veterans I was like “Hmmm, probably just another ad like all the rest of those consulting companies out there claiming they can get you a higher VA rating just to be disappointed and out thousands of dollars for a denial…”, but as I thought about it a little more and honestly can't tell you what made me to decide to contact 4VetsConsulting…I don't know maybe it was the “What the heck, what else do I got to lose?” thought considering I've been fighting the VA for 14 years with no progress. What I can tell you is that listening to your voice in your head to contact 4VetsConsulting was simply one of the best decisions I've ever made. When I called I talked to a man named Luke Bourne and let me tell you. Luke is nothing but exceptional, knowledgeable and passionate in what he does for Veterans! I worked with Luke for 11 months and he and his team was able to get my rating to the 100 percent that I've long fought the VA for. If you feel discouraged and all hope is lost in receiving an increase…I'm telling you to reach out to Luke at 4VetsConsulting. I promise he will not disappoint! Luke, I want to thank you again for helping me every and each step of the process in achieving a rating that was deserved. It was best decision and money spent that I have ever made! Thanks again for for everything and all you do for all the other veterans out there!
-Aaron
Dear Luke,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deepest appreciation for your unwavering commitment and extraordinary service in assisting me with my VA disability compensation claim.
Before our paths crossed, I was grappling with a 20% disability rating. The struggles were numerous, the bureaucracy was daunting, and the emotional toll was significant. I was disheartened and on the verge of giving up, believing that my circumstances were beyond resolution.
That's when you stepped in. Your profound knowledge of the VA system, your meticulous attention to detail, and your empathy for my situation instilled a sense of hope and confidence that I had almost lost. You transformed the intimidating process of dealing with VA paperwork into an understandable and manageable task.
Your tireless efforts and unwavering dedication to my case resulted in a remarkable increase in my disability rating from 20% to 70%. This tangible increase, however, doesn't fully represent the impact of your services. You brought more than just an improved disability rating; you brought peace of mind, financial stability, and a newfound confidence in navigating the system that had once seemed so insurmountable.
Your professionalism and compassion set a high standard in an industry that can often feel impersonal and indifferent. You not only possess an impressive understanding of the legal and medical aspects of the VA disability process, but you also demonstrate a genuine concern for your clients' well-being, which is a testament to your integrity and dedication.
I wholeheartedly recommend your services to any veteran in need of assistance with their VA disability compensation claim. To any veterans reading this letter, please know that with Luke on your side, you are not alone. You have an advocate, a supporter, and a guide who will tirelessly work to ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve.
Thank you, Luke, for all that you've done for me and for the countless other veterans whose lives you have undoubtedly improved through your exceptional service. Your work truly makes a difference.
With deepest gratitude,
-Kurt
A huge thank you to Luke and his team at 4Vets Consulting. I've been battling the VA for a years now and with the help of Luke I finally received 100%. Luke is a professional in all aspects and cares for the person on the end of the line who needs his help. Without Luke I'd still be battling with the VA with endless mounds of paperwork and repeated doctors visit causing undue stress and anxiety. I cannot emphasize the amount of gratitude I have for 4Vets Counseling and the key ingredient “Luke” for helping me and my family. If you're unsure about 4Vets Consulting you can rest at ease. I highly recommend them.
-Hank
I was medically retired, and my service-connected disabilities have been getting worse. My wife had seen 4Vets Consulting on Facebook and read several of their reviews. She recommended that I reach out and see if they could assist. During my first phone call with Luke, we recognized each other's name and discovered that he and I had actually served together early in our career's. What a blast from the past! I started the process in May 2022 and notified VA I would be filing a disability claim. Luke and 4Vets Consulting provided step-by-step information and directions on how to obtain all of my medical records, fill out the required documents and assisted with getting my doctor appointment scheduled. Once everything was completed, I was able to upload the required forms to VA in April 2023. As of a few days ago, I went from a 70% disability rating to a 100% disability rating. A HUGE thank you to Luke and 4Vets Consulting for helping me achieve the results needed. They are a team of professionals, and it shows in their commitment to helping veterans through the process. I highly recommend.
-Robert
Thank you so much, Luke. You have helped me through this entire process and I have never walked alone in this. You made the process so fast and simple. You walked me through everything. I truly believe you care and want the best for people, which is why you love to help vets. I am glad, my friend referred me to you.
-Richelle
I give my highest recommendation to Luke and his professional team at 4Vets Consulting. He was there for me every step of the way during my claim. He made a complicated process seem easy and was able to help guide me to an increase in my benefits from 90% to 100%. My family and I really appreciated all the services 4Vets Consulting provided. Only wish I had chosen this process years earlier.
-Mark
Luke and his team are very knowledgeable about the VA claims process. From the first call with Luke to receiving your decision, you can tell that the team has your best interest in mind. The doctors that you visit are top notch and very thorough. If you've ever felt that you were underrated, give Luke a call, you won't regret it!
-Matt
Outstanding Service, they will walk you through the process, very professional and a easy experience. I highly recommend 4 Vets Consulting for your disability rating claims. Thanks Luke and I wish you the best and a Big Thank You for your assistance.
-Mark
Luke and 4 Vets Consulting does it again. Thanks for helping navigate this difficult process. You and the team make the process incredibly easy. If you need assistance with the VA, Luke is the guy!!!
-Kevin
On Friday, I finally received the results of my year long battle with the VA. Thanks to the outstanding help from Luke, my family and I are now eligible for the full VA & Florida benefits earned over my 25 year career… just in time for my first veteran's day out of uniform. I really can't say enough great things about Luke and 4Vets! Throughout my BDD and the VA C&P exams prior to my retirement, I experienced what many others have… the least professional interactions with “medical” practitioners I've ever had! From the contractor scheduling to the office visits, I was thoroughly disappointed in the process and eventual outcome. Then came Luke and his team at 4Vets. His outstanding communications and professionalism gave me hope that I could get a more appropriate rating. Luke helped me through every part of the process and I ended up with a 100% P&T. Thank you for all the help and guidance Luke! Reach out to Luke at 4Vets Consulting if you need help with the VA.
-Ben
It was a long process BUT we'll worth it! between all my questions and the VA dragging their feet , Luke was always accessible to answer my questions, provide guidance and help reassure me to the best of his abilities. Yesterday I finally got my disabilities documented correctly and received 100% total and permanent. Do yourself a favor and reach out to Luke, You absolutely will not be disappointed!
-Tyler
There is a reason Luke has all 5 star reviews!
I came to Luke in February of 2023 at 80% and just today I got my 100% permanent and total rating. I can't thank him enough; you won't find better help than him throughout this process.
-Matt
Luke is the man! He just helped me increase from 90% to 100% in 2 months and it was the simplest process ever. An increase like that can will change my family's life and set my kids up for the future. What a life changing thing these guys are doing here at 4Vets Consulting. If you're not happy with your rating, give Luke a call and see if they can help!
-Bret
Luke was nothing but fantastic to work with. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I would recommend 4 Vets to anybody and everybody who is looking to raise their rating. There's honestly no one better. THANK YOU LUKE AND 4VETS!

When considering filing for initial benefits or an appeal with the U.S. Veteran’s Administration I highly recommend 4Vets Consulting. Similar to many others, I briefly thought about doing my own appeal, but after reviewing the paperwork and process instituted by the V.A., realized handling my own appeal was not a wise decision. Although I consider myself averagely smart and educated (PhD), the V.A. has a process that I found confusing, difficult, and frustrating. Similar to having surgery where one uses an expert in the specialty, 4vetsconsulting is the expert in V.A. claims. The process was easy, instructions clear and concise, and experts were utilized throughout the process. As such, the V.A. reviewed my claim, and because it was "...fully developed and documented," made a decision in my favor in less than 72 hours. The 72 hours probably isn’t the norm, but the comment regarding the decision regarding fully developed and documented is an indication of the expert team employed by 4vetsconsulting. Definitely 5 of 5 stars and the only disability team I will ever use.
-James
So grateful for Luke and his team. They made it extremely easy for me and took all the headache out of all the work that goes along with trying to file a claim. I couldn't be more impressed!!
-Seth
Thanks for helping me obtain an increase in my rating. My first two claims were done thru a DAV advocate. If only I knew about 4Vets back then. 4Vets Consulting aka Luke knocked it out of the park for me. From the initial consultation thru filing and following up on my claim the service was awesome. Luke provided clarity to an otherwise convoluted government process and made it easy for me. I highly recommend 4Vets!!!
-Chris
I hired 4vets to help me organize my paperwork and setup medical appointments in pursuit of service-connected disabilities withe VA. They helped me greatly in achieving the highest rating of 100%, and did so in a efficient timeframe, with utmost professionalism. Once all documents are submitted to the VA, 4vets still follows up with you on the status of the VA decision, showing that while they are a business, they do care about the outcomes for the vets that work with them. Would recommend 10/10 to any veteran seeking to increase their disability rating.
-Reinaldo
Many thanks to Luke for being a man of integrity and expertise. He provided assistance to get my rating appropriately adjusted. From the initial consultation all the way through final rating adjustment, Luke was there with me. He personally kept in frequent contact with me to ensure I had the most current status and that I understood the complexities of the VA system. If you want great value and great service, look no further than Luke.
-Rob
I am so excited to recommend 4 Vets Consulting. I just so happened to see them on Facebook and quickly read the reviews. After reading the reviews, I knew this was the company for me and I’m so thankful. My ratings almost doubled. So thankful for Luke and company that I recommended to of my family members…
-Darren
Contact Luke and his team and they will earn your respect and business. When I started to navigate the disability claim it never felt right. The other reps put the work on my shoulders. I asked “I have to do all this?” The response I got was a shoulder shrug and “good luck”. One phone call to Luke and I felt YES! This is what I envisioned what a veterans rep should be like. Luke served in the military on the SERE team. He still loves the Ethos “That Others May live” he and his team had all the answers and steps required to process my claim. Every conversation I felt like was sayin “I got you!” I got my claim completely and submitted accurately and on time. Trust them! They got you!

Great service, great communication! They help you get through all the red tape that’s put in place to scare you. They don’t sugar coat it either, you either deserve it or you don’t. Thanks for your help!

I retired a little over a year ago with a 90% disability rating, but I knew I should have been rated at a 100%. I didn't know where to start. So I left a message in a veteran page on Facebook. That's when I got contacted by Luke from 4Vets. I was hesitant at first because of the stories I have heard about agencies scamming vets. But I kept the faith and ended up working with them. Luke kept me abreast with everything and what to expect throughout the process. All of this happened in July of 2022. Just yesterday, I logged into the VA site, and found out that my claim for increase was approved, and I am now 100% T&P. Glory be to God, thank you Luke and 4Vets.
-Abu
The entire process was seamless and Luke was there every step of the way. He is very thorough, explains everything, and follows up regularly. What else can I say?!!! 90 Days. And I'm at 90%!!! I'm a very happy camper!
-Brenda
So I had 4Vets Consulting help me on my VA claim for an increase, I have tried twice on my own with no success. I contacted Luke, and well the process was easy. He made all appointments, kept me in the know til the end. Was a relief. I would definitely recommend 100%, and believe me i was serious skeptical about using outside help, but it is 100% legit. Thank you Luke Bourn, God bless and take care. Keep helping us out.
-Armando
Luke and the 4Vets Consulting team surpassed all of my expectations. From my first phone call to Luke, to obtaining all my medical records, filling out required forms, and scheduling my doctor’s appointment, Luke was available and willing to assist me through the entire process as needed even on weekends.
Luke is definitely a subject matter expert when it comes to helping veterans with worsening service-connected disabilities. My rating was increased as predicted and I was notified by the VA within two weeks after submitting my claim.
I can’t thank Luke and the staff at 4Vets Consulting enough. I will recommend other veterans I know who like myself, are experiencing a decline in quality of life due to worsening service-connected conditions.
If you have thought about looking into getting your disability rating reevaluated (as I had for years) you owe it to yourself to contact Luke Bourn at 4Vets Consulting.
-Brian
As my service-connected disabilities continued to get worse, I applied for 5 years to get my disability rate increase and kept getting denied. Finally, out of frustration, I found 4Vets Consulting. From the very first phone call with Luke, I was impressed with his knowledge and understanding of the VA disability system and how it works. After signing on with 4Vets, I process was very smooth. It took a while (nearly 10 months), it was worth the wait. 4Vets is very through they understand the system. Once they completed the review process, the filing and their guidance was spot on! I cannot thank them enough. Luke is very positive, very professional and a very understanding. This guy knows his stuff. Trust him, he will work for you!!
-Brian
I contacted Luke, and 4Vets Consulting LLC in Feb 2022. I received my new rating today. I am happy to say that I am now 100% T&P. It has been a long road of denials and low ratings from the VA. Luke Bourn and 4Vets Consulting are experts in ensuring that veterans are rated accurately. Luke was patient and always available to answer any of my questions. At times I felt as though I was a bother to Luke but he assured me that it was his mission to help. I am forever grateful to Luke an 4Vets Consulting for their patience and attention to detail in making sure that the VA rated me appropriately for my service-connected disabilities. If you are looking for assistance in being rated properly, please do not hesitate to contact them! I highly recommend using their services! I cannot thank Luke and 4Vets Consulting enough.
-Kenneth
I had all but given up with trying to increase my VA rating. By fate I came across a Facebook post from Luke (4Vets Consulting) on one of our military Facebook pages. I knew Luke from my time in the military and what a hard-working professional he was. From first contact to my claim being closed he and his team were there for me. I just received my increase from 10% to 60%! I highly recommend talking to Luke and trusting the process. Plan on using him again in the near future. Thank you again Luke!
-David
I would like to highly recommend Luke and his team at 4Vets. I had grown frustrated with the VA after trying to get my disability increased by myself. After working with Luke, I was able to get my disability increased from 80% to 100%. He was there the whole way to answer questions, walk me through the process and help with paperwork. I have recommended 4Vets and Luke to several of my military buddies. Thanks for all the help!
-Justin
Submitting a VA initial claim, or for increase on your own is probably going to result in a less than desired rating and frustration. On your own, the VA system isn’t simple or fast. When you do get your exam you’ll be herded through your exam as quickly as possible. I know. I’ve been there and tried.
I contacted Luke to see if he could provide some assistance. After a phone call, a few emails, my DBQ was at the desk of his team within 2 days. After a short amount of time I had an exam scheduled by his team, completed the very thorough and detailed exam (where the Dr actually listened and took measurements) and the results of the exam were completed and forwarded to me in 2 weeks. All I had to do was upload the files into the VA system and wait. Due to the VA backlog it took 5 months for them to process the package which resulted in a very favorable increase. All the while Luke kept me informed of current processing times and when I would probably hear from the VA. Luke was spot-on. Was it worth the cost? Absolutely. Would I recommend Luke and his team? Without a doubt.
-Jason
I went from 90% to 100% thanks to Luke! You get Luke’s personal cellphone number and he will answer right away. When you do a claim, you never know what you will get when it comes to the VA. I had issues twice with what I submitted. Luke was right on it both times and his attorneys helped me out right away. Luke is an expert and he will help until the very end. There are some shady people out there that are “vets helping vets” and it is a big lie. Luke is the real deal. I am recommending him to everyone that is in need of his services. I went to combat twice with the United States Marine Corps and it was well documented. I still hit snag after snag until I met Luke. If you don’t use Luke, you are only hurting yourself, no pun intended.
-Don
My highest possible recommendation to 4Vets Consulting. Luke and his incredible team accomplished everything they proposed they could do for me with the VA, and more than was expected. Every inquiry I made during the process was met by an immediate and professional response by Luke or his team. Customer service is unmatched. It's more than worth the time, effort, and cost to have them guide you through this process. It could be lifechanging as it was for me. Thank you so much Luke for your service to me and other veterans!
-James
Luke and 4Vets Consulting are extremely professional. Luke was always available and answer all my concerns and questions and displayed competence and expertise handling my claim. He was able to guide me through the entire process in a detailed and thorough manner. The process was seamless. I am so thankful for utilizing 4Vets and for the professionalism and quality of the entire staff. All the best.
-Stephen
I retired in '06 with a fairly low disability rating and at the time figured "it is what it is" because I didn't really know any better. Over the years I considered refiling, but kept procrastinating because of the horror stories of dealing with the VA. Then I chatted with Luke Bourn of 4Vets Consulting and all of that changed. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical...why should I pay for a service that is supposed to be free? However, the bottom line is this is maybe the best value I have ever seen! I quickly learned what it means to have a team on MY side, and in about 5-months I had a 40% rating increase! And the entire process could not have been easier! Thank you Luke and 4Vets Consulting!
-Joe
Working with 4Vets Consulting, LLC was the best decision I could have made for my compensation claims. Working with other outlets or the VA directly can be very overwhelming and complicated. Luke was extremely knowledgeable about the entire process and couldn’t have made it any easier for me. If anyone is looking to submit a claim I can’t recommend them enough.
-Jake
Absolutely outstanding customer service from start to finish! From the first informational phone call to my notification from the VA that my disability rating has been increased, 4Vets Consulting, LLC did exactly as they said. They provided expert advice and never over sold what they could do. In the end they understood and over delivered and I can’t be happier with them. Working with a company and doctors that were actually working for me and supporting me was such a different experience than seeing the VA contracted doctors. Process started in September of 2021 when they helped me file my Intent to File form with the VA and I had a decision from the VA the first week of April 2022 increasing my disability rating! Absolutely recommend them!
-Pat
I just wanted to write and let you know how much I appreciate your help in processing my VA claim. I was going to try it myself but the thought of it made me queasy because I've dealt with them before and had little success. When I happened to run into you and you gave me some advice I was a bit doubtful at first but spoke to some friends that had used your services and all gave a glowing review.
So I decided to take a chance. I was a little leary of the up-front cost (which I've learned since then is probably too low compared to others) but took a chance. Rather than having to wade through the red tape of filing again you basically took my hand and walked me through the process. Everything you told me, including time to process, the files needed, and what to expect were spot-on. Within a few weeks I'd seen a provider and received a check in my bank account. When it wasn't as much of an increase as we'd anticipated, I thought that was it. Then you told me that they'd missed some important items and I should appeal. Still not expecting much as it's the VA, I followed your instructions and waited. Within 4-5 weeks my appeal had been approved and they came to the rating that you had told me to expect on our first conversation. I couldn't be happier with the results, and couldn't have done it without your help. Thanks for everything, brother! I recently referred a young soldier who was looking for help navigating the claims system and he's very excited to find you when he most needed it.
Thank you again,
-Darrell
The whole process took about 4 months. But within 72 hours, I went from 80% to 100%! All the increases were exactly how Luke predicted them! Great job Luke! You have a wonderful process for everyone to benefit from! Thank you so much!
-Krissy
A few months back I was complaining about my back pain to a friend. We discussed my disability and they mentioned that they were going through a review process with Luke. I realized that I had worked with Luke several times over my career, so I reached out to him. We discussed my situation and he told me that he thought I was a good candidate for an upgrade. He reviewed my med records and we discussed moving forward. I knew that paying someone for the possibility of an upgrade was a gamble, but I decided to go for it, since the reward was much better than the risk. Long story short, Luke and his team walked me through the entire process, making the challenging process simple, and the result was exactly as Luke predicted - 100% Service Connected Disabled. Luke and his team changed my life, mentally and financially. You owe it to yourself to chat with Luke and see how he can help navigate you through the process.
-Jim
I went from 70 percent to 90 percent. Thank you Luke and the 4Vets Consulting team, I couldn't have done it without your help. I highly recommend 4Vets Consulting team.
-David
I have to share my story about this company. I'm a USAF veteran with a previous 70% rating. I began my application in August 2021 to increase my disability rating. Luke and all the staff were professional, courteous, helpful, and always available to answer questions. And believe me I had many questions. Their expertise at directing and guiding me through the VA process was smooth. Never felt out of touch or stressed. The phases were easy and at your pace. I chose to get through the process as quickly as possible, however, never missed the details because that is important. Encouragement was always a number one priority for all staff. The medical appointments are easy to schedule, and the staff takes care of the rest. I for one will recommend all vets with disabilities to seek assistance through this company. As a veteran never look the other way when it comes to seeking a rating. We serve our country and deserve to be taken care of and this company puts you first within policy and guidelines stressed by the VA. So, I'm thankful and blessed to have received a 100% rating, and thank you all around to this company. God bless!
-Tom
Thanks Luke! 4Vetsconsulting is by far the best investment I've made in decades. The daunting VA system is nightmarish without help. I have battled them alone and just by one friendly medical professional was able to keep my rating from being reduced. When I first learned of 4Vets I was like most; skeptical, but was convinced by the tons of success stories and mine is one of those now. The process is made simple by following the detailed plan that Luke will guide you through, don't ever doubt he is working for you 24/7. I was able to get an increase from 60 to 90 and that allowed me to quit full time work and spend more time with my family.
-Bill
It is with gratitude that I share my disability rating story. When I retired, I was awarded a 20% disability rating. Like many other veterans, I applied for an increase on my own and was denied. I am so glad that I reached out to Luke and 4Vets Consulting as in just over two months, my rating went from 20% to 60%. With Luke's guidance, the process was painless and efficient. When I called with a question, he got right back to me, and I felt that he and his team were there for me through the end. I highly recommend 4Vets Consulting.
-Mark
2021
Contacted lots of reps to help me out but none are like Luke and his company. I was very pleased with how serious he is to going over and beyond to help get the veterans what we deserve. It was a fast and easy process. Got awarded 100% in no time. Thank you Luke and 4Vets Consulting.
-Clifford
Retired Air Force with 22 years in 2005. Initial rating was 10%. In 2009 I refiled. The process took nine months, and my rating increased to 30%. Started the process again in May 2021 with 4Vets Consulting. From start to finish took a little over two months. Just found out my rating is now 80%! I wish I did this years ago, but I'm glad I did it! 4Vets Consulting made the process easy. Thank you!
-Jim
I highly recommend using 4Vets Consulting, LLC when trying to submit a claim thru the VA. I tried in the past on my own and was unsuccessful. Thanks to Luke, the process is very easy and extremely fast, just a little over 2 months. It was a life changer. Luke’s service got me an increase from 10% to 80%.
-Michael
Highly recommend any veteran with a Service connected disability to at least talk with 4Vets Consulting LLC. I retired almost 20 years ago from the Navy with only 40% disability being evaluated by a typical VA doctor on behalf of the VA and not so much on my issues. Once I heard about 4Vets Consulting I didn't hesitate. I worked with Luke Bourn and he guided me through a very expeditious process of gathering what I needed and getting them submitted. They had me see one of their doctors who truly cared about my issues and not so much about the VA's. Within 48 hours of submitting my claim to the VA for an increase in my disability I jumped to 70% and still waiting for my final review for one Service Connected issue that may take me to 80%. Luke stayed with me the entire time and kept me informed throughout the process. 4Vets Consulting took all the hard work out of dealing with the VA's vast process of trying to file claims and made it easy. I'm short to retire from Federal service (second career) and the additional disability I now receive will make a big difference in my next chapter of life - Thank you 4Vets and thank you Luke for making this such a painless and quick process. Would recommend your services to any Vet!
-Tom
I just wanted to share my recent experience utilizing 4Vets Consulting. Many of us have had bad experiences working with the VA on trying to increase our disability ratings. I left the service with just 10% which was a result of a poor VA doctor. Recently, I reapplied for an increase, utilizing the expertise of 4Vets Consulting, LLC…and as of two days ago, my rating was increased to 50%! If you have been considering a reevaluation, or just have questions, I strongly encourage you to give Luke a call. This process works…he will walk you thru every step, answer any question and it makes the process so easy. Highly recommended!
-Colin
I highly recommend 4Vets Consulting and specifically Luke for anyone seeking a VA disability increase. For many years I had considered filing for a VA disability increase. However, I did some research and spoke to some people about how the process worked and was discouraged by the complex process the VA has in place and the lack of success other veterans experienced after applying for a disability increase. I was introduced to Luke and he explained the process for 4Vets Consulting and he encouraged me to pursue an increase utilizing 4Vets services. Luke not only encouraged me but he was also my advocate for ensuring I completed the steps properly and kept me informed of the next step. 4Vets Consulting has exceptional knowledge on the VA process and all VA requirements were met. With Luke's guidance, getting a package together was very easy and 4Vets Consulting took care of the details. Once the documents were completed, I submitted them to the VA. Honestly, submitting the package through the VA website was absolutely cofounding and the process is beyond understanding. 4Vets Consulting provided specific step by step instructions that worked. The application for increase was a success without any issues or request for additional information from the VA. Luke was excited as I was for the positive results. My hat is off to him and 4Vets Consulting. I am very grateful Thank you!
-Al
I have tried for years to have my service-connected disabilities evaluated properly by the VA with no success. They continued to send me to inaccurate, contracted providers. One conducted a phone interview on the wrong day about a physical disability and the VA accepted it! I was frustrated for certain. When 4Vets Consulting agreed to look at my issues they were quick to set up evaluations, in person, with medical providers who conducted the most detailed exams I've ever had. Once submitted the VA could not argue with the results and my rating went from 60 to 100 percent, permanent! Finally, the rating I deserved based on my service-connected issues. It's great to have someone on your side finally.
-Keith
70% to 100% VA disability rating! Luke is the reason it happened and I’m eternally grateful for his attention to detail and ability to explain how to maneuver the VA’s unique set of rules. From start to finish, he was there to answer any questions, It’s a complicated process to figure out on your own, but Luke made it easy to understand and laid out what to expect at the beginning. If you’re thinking about improving your rating, contact Luke and you’ll be glad you did. I have 100% confidence in his ability to improve your situation. If it can be done, he’ll get it done! It was life changing for me and my family. Good luck, God bless.
-Bob
I want to share a quick note to let you know that Luke did an awesome job and I'm glad I decided to go with him. It was amazing how, with Luke’s guidance, the overall process to increase my rating was quick and easy. He helped me with every step in the process from beginning to end and I can honestly say it was well worth it. I went from 80 percent to 100 percent in a few short months! Thank you Luke for helping me successfully increase my VA benefits.
-Dave
Can't thank Luke Bourn enough for his professionalism and putting up with my (unnecessary) anxieties about the process, and the speed at which it was successfully accomplished. This may be a record for the VA - but once my filing was completed - it was approved in TWO DAYS!! From the day I submitted my request to the day I received backpay was EIGHT DAYS!!
-Betty
