Practice Area
PTSD & Military Sexual Trauma
You're Not Alone in This
If your service left you carrying PTSD, anxiety, depression, or the effects of military sexual trauma (MST), you can receive disability compensation for current mental health conditions connected to your time in service.
Many veterans, both men and women, have experienced sexual trauma while serving. These experiences can affect mental and physical health for years afterward — and proving that connection to the VA can feel like reliving it all over again. That's exactly where Windham Law's approach is different.
Why This Matters Here
A Clinician's Understanding, Not Just a Lawyer's
Attorney Malory Windham is also a licensed clinical social worker and former psychotherapist. Because she understands the diagnoses often associated with PTSD and MST as a mental health professional — not just as an attorney — she's uniquely qualified to prove both the diagnosis itself and its service-connection for her clients. That means fewer retraumatizing conversations, and a case built by someone who genuinely understands what you're describing.
