Hello, I am hoping someone can share advice for me regarding my lawyer.
I got a VA certified lawyer in 2017 to help me with a CUE and an appeal. I feel like he is too busy and he is not putting any effort into my claim.
For example, one of my claims disappeared from ebenefits, and when I emailed him to let him know he told me it was still there and to be patient. Then a month later I emailed him about it again and he realized I was correct that the claim was no longer in the system. He told me he would follow up with them, but never did. He often does not respond to my questions until I have asked a few times. The CUE has been rejected at least two times because the VA is saying he didn't submit a form he was supposed to submit, but he says they don't need the form.
So, my questions are
1. Is this pretty standard? I am not sure what to expect, maybe I am expecting more than I should.
2. Should I get a different lawyer? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks for reading and I would appreciate any advice anyone has for me.
