I have been approved 90% service connected 1 year ago, then I filed for the disability that is denied from the 1st claim this year. I received a 100% rating 5 days ago but after the next day I checked ebenefits after it has been completed there is 2 pending disabilities on the bottom which was not there on the first day I fund out I have been approved, I have been backed payed for 2 months after approval and decided to wait for the decision letter to come in the mail to clarify what i saw and today it came in that I was awarded 100% on the first page and on the secondnce page they are reducing my rating to 80%. all this happened in not even 1 month after approval. The letter states that there is an improvement of the condition on my PTSD(previously depression) and TBI. Any members have this kind of situation? I am really leaning on getting a disability lawyer. Is this the right path to take? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have been approved 90% service connected 1 year ago, then I filed for the disability that is denied from the 1st claim this year. I received a 100% rating 5 days ago but after the next day I checked ebenefits after it has been completed there is 2 pending disabilities on the bottom which was not there on the first day I fund out I have been approved, I have been backed payed for 2 months after approval and decided to wait for the decision letter to come in the mail to clarify what i saw and today it came in that I was awarded 100% on the first page and on the secondnce page they are reducing my rating to 80%. all this happened in not even 1 month after approval. The letter states that there is an improvement of the condition on my PTSD(previously depression) and TBI. Any members have this kind of situation? I am really leaning on getting a disability lawyer. Is this the right path to take? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
