About Berry Law

Berry Law is more than a law firm— we are a mission‑driven organization committed to protecting constitutional rights and helping Veterans secure the benefits they deserve.

Founded in 1965, Berry Law represents clients in all 50 states and has recovered over half a billion dollars in benefits and compensation for Veterans and injured clients nationwide.

Today, Berry Law continues that legacy through a fast‑paced, results‑driven, and highly professional environment focused on building bigger, better futures for both our clients and our team members.
