Meet Rebecca Finch
Knowledgeable representation. Genuinely personal advocacy.
I founded Rapha Veterans Advocacy to provide veterans with something that can be difficult to find in the VA claims process: knowledgeable representation combined with genuinely personal advocacy.
As a VA-accredited claims agent, I represent veterans through disability claims and appeals, helping them understand the evidence, the strategy, and the decisions that can affect their benefits.
My approach is deliberately personal. I maintain a limited caseload so I can know the veterans I represent, understand their individual circumstances, and remain directly involved throughout the process.
More than a professional connection
Military service has long been part of my life beyond my work. As the spouse of a Marine Corps aviator, I understand that service affects more than the individual wearing the uniform. It shapes families, careers, relationships, moves, deployments, uncertainty, sacrifice, and life after service.
That perspective does not replace the legal and evidentiary work required in a VA claim—but it does shape the way I listen to veterans and the respect I bring to their stories.
Experience that shapes my advocacy
Before becoming a VA-accredited claims agent, I worked in behavioral health for the Marine Corps. That experience gave me a deeper appreciation for the relationship between medical evidence, functional impairment, and the lived experience behind a diagnosis.
Today, I bring that perspective to the claims process by looking beyond individual documents and considering how the evidence fits together as a whole.
Why Rapha
Faith is central to my work.
“Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed…” — Isaiah 1:17
The name Rapha comes from Jehovah Rapha—“The Lord Who Heals.” I cannot heal the wounds of military service. What I can do is help veterans pursue the benefits they have earned through service and sacrifice, and stand beside them with thoughtful, honest advocacy throughout that process.
Veteran experiences
Representation that feels personal.
Real experiences from veterans and families who wanted knowledgeable guidance without losing the human connection.

Rebecca went above and beyond to help me with my VA claims—she had a deep, working knowledge of the system, knew exactly what to submit and how to best support each claim. I was blown away by what she was able to accomplish for me! If you want to make sure your claim is submitted correctly and well-supported with the correct documentation the first time, Rebecca is who you want to work with. A lot of veterans don’t file because it feels overwhelming and there’s a huge learning curve—with Rebecca she handles everything! She has incredible attention to detail and has been passionate about helping veterans with their claims for many years! Thank you, Rebecca!
I can't say enough about the wonderful service and guidance I received. It's rare to find such impressive knowledge and efficient work while combined with kindness and compassion. I recommend this to any veteran searching for assistance!
Working with Rebecca was the best decision I could have made for my claims process. The VA system can feel like an impossible maze, but she stepped in with unmatched expertise and truly took the burden off my shoulders. She is meticulous, highly efficient, and genuinely cares about the veterans she serves. Thanks to her dedicated advocacy, my claim was successful. Don't go through this stressful process alone—let Rebecca handle it!
Couldn’t be happier with how Rebecca has handled my VA claim! She is so knowledgeable and helpful in each and every aspect of what goes into a claim. She even went above and beyond to calm my nerves because I was so incredibly anxious leading up to my medical exam, telling me it’s okay to be anxious and to let the examiner know I’m anxious. She even helped me by prepping me for my exam. She is with you every step of the way and I cannot recommend her enough!
Rebecca has gone above and beyond the call of duty to make sure my mom receives the benefits that she earned from her 21 years in the Air Force. After a two-year battle of denial after denial, we received a 100% rating for my mother. Rebecca has an incredible mix of intelligence and tenacity, and uses those with an impressive command of the VA process. She is quick to respond, explains things in a way that is easy to understand, and literally holds your hand and walks you through the process. We are eternally grateful!
Before you begin
Common questions.
Clear expectations matter. Here are answers to the questions veterans most often have before submitting an intake.
Does completing the intake make RVA my representative?
No. The intake allows me to review your situation. Representation begins only after we both agree to work together and the required appointment and fee documents, when applicable, are completed.
Will I work directly with Rebecca?
Yes. Rapha Veterans Advocacy is intentionally not a volume practice. I personally review potential cases and remain directly involved with the veterans I represent.
How do fees work?
RVA does not charge a fee for preparing or presenting an initial claim. When permitted for eligible appeal work, my standard agreement is a 20% contingent fee based on past-due benefits awarded. Any applicable fee is explained before representation begins.
What should I have before I submit?
Provide what you already have, including relevant VA decisions or records if available. You do not need to diagnose the legal or evidentiary problem yourself—that is part of the review.
Can you guarantee the outcome of my claim?
No representative can ethically guarantee a VA decision. I can provide an honest assessment, careful evidence review, and a strategy grounded in the facts and applicable VA rules.
Will you prepare me for my C&P examinations?
Yes. I prepare every client for each C&P examination and explain what to expect, how to describe functional limitations accurately, and common pitfalls to avoid.
Ready to take the next step?
You do not have to figure this out alone.
You do not need to know which form to file, which legal theory applies, or exactly what evidence is missing. Start by telling me what happened.
