Our Story
The government estimates that hundreds of thousands of veterans are eligible for the Aid & Attendance program. Unfortunately, many are unaware that these life-changing benefits are available to them.
My Veteran Solutions was created to bridge this gap, connecting veterans with the pensions they've earned through their service. These benefits can make a significant impact, covering medical expenses, living costs, and other essential needs.
My Veteran Solutions' Mission is to Help Veterans and Their Loved Ones Access the Pensions They've Rightfully Earned.
We assist veterans nationwide in securing their VA pensions to cover expenses such as medical care, assisted living, housing, and activities of daily living.

Greg Griffin
Began his business career with Dean Witter and then EF Hutton in the pension management area focusing on managed accounts in the real estate funding sector. In the late 80s, Greg co-founded a private real estate financing firm in the San Francisco Bay Area. The firm grew to manage over $150 million in a privately funded real estate portfolio and banked $500,000,000 annually in conventional “A” paper.
In 2022 Greg’s father, an Army Veteran, became familiar with a pension benefit from the United States Veterans Administration called Aid and Attendance. Greg’s passion to serve veterans led him to founding a business providing the Aid and Attendance benefit to deserving US service veterans. Today My Veteran Solutions offers veterans assistance in processing the application of this important pension benefit.
