Pennsylvania veterans who paid a Florida-based company to help them obtain federal veterans benefits now have only weeks left to try to recover their money, after the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Attorney General Dave Sunday is urging anyone affected to file a claim before the window closes on November 30.
Trajector Holdings LLC, Trajector Medical LLC, and related entities filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, according to WFMZ.com. Court records show the 22 Trajector debtors filed their voluntary petitions on July 23, 2026, with the cases pending joint administration under Case No. 26-03286 in the Jacksonville Division, according to Verita Global’s case website. Sunday has entered an appearance in the proceedings to help protect veterans’ rights, his office says.
Why the Case Matters to Pennsylvania Veterans
According to the attorney general’s office, Trajector charged veterans to help them obtain federal veterans benefits, and federal law contains strict requirements for filing VA claims and charging fees for related services. Veterans who paid Trajector and believe they are owed money can file claims for help they received obtaining benefits, the office says.
“Veterans have earned the benefits they receive through their service and sacrifices. Any company taking advantage of veterans’ free access to benefits is unacceptable,” Sunday said, per his office. The attorney general’s office says it will monitor the bankruptcy proceedings and work to ensure Pennsylvania veterans are treated fairly.
How and When to File a Claim
The bankruptcy court extended the proof-of-claim filing deadline for military veterans specifically to November 30, 2026, according to the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office. Veterans using Trajector’s services who believe they are owed money should file a claim electronically through Verita Global or by mail. Claims may be submitted by U.S. mail, hand delivery, or electronically as an ePOC; facsimile and other electronic delivery methods are not accepted, per the same case website.
Claims should identify the amount believed owed and include supporting records such as receipts, contracts, payment records, and correspondence, the Minnesota attorney general’s office notes. Veterans should keep copies of all documents related to Trajector’s services. Missing the filing deadline may result in a loss of the right to share in any distribution from the bankruptcy estate, and filing a claim does not guarantee payment — any distribution to claimants depends on the outcome of the bankruptcy proceedings, the office cautions.
Veterans with questions about their rights in the bankruptcy proceeding should consult a private attorney, according to the attorney general’s office. Veterans and other consumers with complaints about Trajector can also submit a complaint to the Office of Attorney General’s Bureau of Consumer Protection online, or call the consumer protection hotline at 1-800-441-2555.
Financial Strain and Outside Scrutiny
The bankruptcy filing comes as Trajector has faced mounting legal and financial pressure. Trajector Medical said it had suspended services in 23 states since 2024 because local laws restricted or increased the risks of its operations, and the company told NPR its revenue in the first half of 2026 declined approximately 60 percent compared with the year before, which it attributed primarily to legal and regulatory changes. Attorneys general in New York and Illinois have said they were investigating Trajector Medical and intended to bring legal action over alleged fraudulent, illegal, and deceptive practices; Trajector denied the allegations, telling NPR, “We deny the allegations in the letter.”
The attorney general’s office also warns Pennsylvania veterans more broadly about so-called claim sharks — unaccredited companies or individuals that charge veterans, often substantial fees, to assist with VA disability claims. Per Sunday’s office, these operators may engage in exploitative or unethical practices against veterans seeking the benefits they are entitled to. Separately, the VA has said it plans to analyze roughly 1 million old disability benefits questionnaires dating to 2010 to identify possible signs of fraud in future claims, and expected to introduce a tool in fiscal 2026 to help staff flag suspected fraud in newly submitted questionnaires, according to Stars and Stripes.
