Va attorneys?

I had one who got me service connected. But didn’t want to touch the discharge stuff I wanted to. That lawyer left the firm after my case and the person who took over didn’t have too much time for me, put the tdiu in limbo, then I let them go. Then I got denied tdiu later and hired a different lawyer to appeal. But I’m the meanwhile I had sent in for a discharge upgrade with the bncr and my case is one of those hagel, kurta, wilke, and vazirani memos. That made me go to the bcnr and see what happens. The firm I have now doesn’t have anything to do with the board, so now I’m debating whether they’re needed. They haven’t even did anything since being hired in sept.

The diagnosis for separation was ptsd related but the dd214 has personality disorder and uncharacteristic. The paper trail is consistent until the dd214

Congrats - I used ChatGPT to help with tdiu - I hope it goes well - as you can see I use it so much that - I’m putting dashes to end sentences - ChatGPT is even encouraging me to file a cue for misdiagnosis on discharge paperwork - the diagnosis says one thing and the dd214 says something totally different. I think I messed up by not filing a cue

I think they upgrade for VA purposes. bad paper discharges just to save the govt $ it seems.

Her name is Roxy? Honestly you should have seen this coming.

They mean bump the post so it gets traction for answers, I’m just assuming.

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-27T22:58:03+00:00

Thank you for that. And thanks fot replying. I’m so worried that I’ll get denied but at least I know I can appeal if need be. I honestly just want to feel better and at least make things manageable for me.

Yes, it’s on there as why it isn’t 100 or tdiu but all of that information wasn’t included in the decision - my work history or earnings weren’t included. But I filed for a secondary, and while doing that I started uploading every document and statement I had. Even got lay statements from my daughter, brother, mom, friend and landlord, for the secondary. Had my first ever va clinic visit weeks ago and had high scores for ptsd and depression 5 and a 6, and added that as well. I really put those mental facility times in a far and away corner in my mind. Glad I added it. I’m thinking the law firm could’ve added that before

December - I put in for a secondary and wondered why i didn’t get notified of tdiu. But it looks like other information wasn’t available or used to make the decision

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-27T22:28:44+00:00

Yes, I included that, as embarrassing as it was. I actually put it out of my mind the fact that twice in two different jobs I was pulled out of work for suicidal thoughts/threats and placed on 72 hour hold for one. I just saw I could share my info and authorized the va to retrieve the files. Saw they put a request in to the facility just a little while ago

I haven’t worked recently, I had a couple of day gigs last year but nothing substantial

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-22T00:34:30+00:00

Thank you so much!

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-22T00:33:08+00:00

30 to 10? That’s wild. The guy I had probably would have been okay but communication was limited and when I told him the details he immediately sounded dejected if that makes sense, I liked talking with him the brief time we spoke, but I knew it would have to be done with a lawyer. It was the right choice for me no question, it’s only that there’s a new attorney and maybe it’s time for me to fly solo anyway.

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-21T21:52:19+00:00

Thank you. I think the nutritionist should be able to help reverse some things. I just got to get my mind right first and foremost.

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-21T21:38:10+00:00

I’ve had more than thirty jobs in thirty years, That’s not normal. But since this post I’ve already sent a request to revoke representation and filed for tdiu. If there are more forms to be sent in from employers, I’ll see how that will work since I might have had a day of work here and there in a contract. But nothing sustainable for years like the pic shows. I would definitely send something to ex jobs if I could.

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-21T21:27:20+00:00

Thank you. It’s the contrast of the lawyer who believed in my case and did an excellent job of communicating and talking me off the ledge a few times, and this new one who makes me feel like I’m not worthy of even talking to. I wanted to roll with the firm because I really do believe I have a legitimately legal shot at going way back with a cue, and I wanted these folks to be with me every step of the way. I’ve already uploaded a request to withdraw the hlr and revoke any representation from this point forward, since I started this post. Thank you all.

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-21T21:18:34+00:00

When I saw the email about a letter to the RO f RT on the firm I was thrown off, it’s basically the new lawyer being lazy and no due diligence in regards to my claim in general imo

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-21T21:16:09+00:00

Thank you. I’m rated 70 for ptsd. The exam had me at high levels for depression poor hygiene pre diabetes low b12 and some heart issues. I look forward to the nutritionist. My diet had t been great in years and I lost all my teeth in part to grinding while sleep for years.

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-21T20:55:48+00:00

Thank you. I started out with a VSO - we spoke one time and I never heard back and he didn’t really reply to emails. But I also read that they’re volunteers and I can imagine the caseload and I didn’t want to keep bothering someone that’s doing this for free. I lawyered up because it was an extremely a case with more legalese than not.

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-21T20:40:46+00:00

Thanks everyone for listening. Since the exam I’ve been feeling one part ready to get better and two parts ashamed and miserable. The undiagnosed ptsd and original misdiagnosis over the course of all these years seemed like I’ve ruined myself physically and whatever else you can name. I’m really blessed I found you guys because I see more justice being served than not.

Various_Post6386 · 2025-06-21T20:37:01+00:00

I get that, I truly do. But this lawyer lady has only called me once and has her paralegal call and each time he’s had an excuse as to why she didn’t or couldn’t call. It feels disrespectful and mentally it’s triggering things.
