ShuMan Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 The sweet taste of victory and the bitter taste of defeat in one letter...lol Got 50% service connection for left knee, brings my total rating to 80%. Got denied for left shoulder issues. Working on a reconsideration as we speak but I'm going to enjoy this 50%. How I did it? I combined some of the veterans law blog and some of what I learned here. I had a package that stated off with a nexus letter from Valor 4 vet (I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a nexus letter), I had to go to a private doc to get a diagnoses, so I included that, a chronological order of my care for the issue, personal statements and buddy letters. I did this for 2 issues and 1 was accepted and the other not, so its still a crap shoot..lol. My claim was decided in 90 days. Thank you to everyone on this board! P.S DRO appeal still pending, been waiting a year and got 2 to go. Vync 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
