VG is very good to go. They get paid 1/2 of your increase for 10 months- you get a $1000/mo increase, they get $500/mo for 10 months & offer a very decent cash discount if you pay up front, vs. making payments.
They did me right & got me bumped from 10% to 70% in 4 months. I'm gonna start working the process for my back issues this summer, once my divorce is over with.
@Stogies the best part is that they do all the work, they have a MD on staff (separate fee, but worth it) and it talk to you the day before any meetings to walk you thru the CMO Exam and physical..
All of the staff are Mil affiliated/broken vets/ or former VA employees
And if you get denied like I did o. The 1st go around, they file the appeal and the back payment fee continues (when the va pays) my back payments -after va denied me-resulted in my getting about 8k
She has nothing to loose
I will let her know, presently Morgan&Morgan is handling the case and they already managed to get her from 10to30to50% with something pretty substantial pending that could very well get her to 100%. But I will pass this on to her!
So M&M says they are done and the 50% is the max she is likely to get. In fact they claim that further pressing the VA may result in a reduction. This sounds rather fishy to me. Thoughts?
Never heard of a reduction unless outright fraud was involved.
Might be all you can get; might be getting to the " too much work for the possible return" point for them.
Hard to say without all the details; I will say it took me many years to get fully through the VA system. They are quick to say NO and hope you go away.
When I started they didn't even have a TBI evaluation protocol. When I finished getting all the subordinate conditions rated, they told me they had to start over and run me through their new TBI protocol. 18 months later, they decided they agreed with themselves.
I wrote it off to helping validate the protocol for those who follow...
I did this all with my wife's help and the occasional congressional kick in the pants when things stalled.
If you aren't happy with where you wound up so far, cut them loose and keep grinding with DAV help.

Each county in NC has a veterans service office; they supposedly can help you. Depends on who you have as your VSO; carteret county had a fairly decent one but he retired
that or the particular condition warrants a future exam. id suggest you look up the va code that is being claimed and look at what is required for each level of disability percentage. if, for example, going from 30% to 60% required loss of limb and you got all your parts, well va isnt going to bump you up to 60% just because you want them to. (and it may not be that simplistic, but i wanted to give a simple example.)
