Tim McHugh and Misha Tseytlin, partners with Troutman Pepper, were quoted and mentioned in the March 20, 2025 Chicago Sun-Times article, “Illinois Backs Veterans Claiming They Were Denied GI Bill Benefits Despite Supreme Court Ruling.”

James Rudisill is a vet whose Supreme Court victory capped a nine-year court battle for greater college benefits that he said the VA wrongly denied him. His pro bono team of lawyers included Chicago attorney Misha Tseytlin and former Army paratrooper and Virginia-based attorney Tim McHugh.

“The Rudisill case was never meant to focus on the fact that he [Rudisill] had a break in service,” said McHugh, with Troutman Pepper Locke, who is working on the new case.
