As I have stated on the board I was granted an "L" award on Special Monthly Compensation.
This was approved at the RO which I find difficult to believe as they have never approved a darn thing I have sent in.
OK...I have at least 7-8 VA Docs saying I need A & A & one saying I need it 24 hours a day & 1 or 2 IMO's which state "I need A & A"
I asked Berta if I should talk with a Lawyer & she seemed to think it was a good idea & I called Karl (Lawyer's Name I got from Berta} today & am waiting for him to call me back.
I know I have asked this question before but I just want to be reassured that how ever long it may take said Lawyer to complete this claim that I will be receiving the award that was granted to me.
I already received back pay which went back to 1997.
Also, I believe with all the evidence I sent them I deserve a higher rating than an L & hope the VA agrees after I "sic' a Lawyer on them"
So, that's the question & any input I would sincerly appreciate.
Also, has anyone been in this position before & if so how did said person fare with the VA?
