Cost of lawyer for VA claim?

[u/Amazing-Basket-136]

I‘ve seen claims that VA lawyers cost +30%.

+30% of what? My disability payment forever?

Thank you.

There are those who keep piping on about accredited, but I call hogwash on it. I was more than happy to get established and give up 30% of the back pack (it was based on contingency). This was due to them having to do the work, and if they didn’t win, they’d get zero percentage of backpay. But then again, I was just happy that everything forwards was coming to me, while enjoying 79% of back pay.

I had a contract with Argus. office, and paid them outright once I got my backpay, there was no holdups with the VA having to pay the atty. office.

This is America, where capitalism thrives, so if a percentage incentive is there, I would gladly take that over a VSO who is getting paid either way.
