A Disciplined Practice for Veterans Who Have Earned It.
Oakridge Claims is a solo VA disability practice focused on appeals, supplemental claims, and rating increases — built on careful evidence review, not high-volume filing.
A Marine, a Nurse, and an Accredited Advocate
Oakridge Claims is operated by Esteban Magallon, a United States Marine Corps veteran and VA-accredited claims agent based in California. Esteban is also a Registered Nurse — a background that informs his ability to read and interpret medical records and clinical documentation as part of the claims review process.
His nursing background is applied solely in support of claims representation and does not constitute the provision of medical advice or medical services.
Esteban works directly with clients throughout the claims process. Representation focuses on reviewing VA decisions and the underlying record, identifying deficiencies or errors, and presenting claims in the appropriate VA review lane.
Rooted in Riverside. Serving Nationwide.
Oakridge Claims is based in Riverside County, California — in the heart of the Inland Empire and home to one of the largest veteran populations in the state. Situated near March Air Reserve Base and within reach of Camp Pendleton, Fort Irwin, and Naval Base San Diego, the practice is well-positioned to serve the Southern California veteran community while providing VA-accredited claims representation to veterans across the country.
