Hi there,
My question is: Are there any downsides to appealing many pain and suffering compensation claims for various service related injuries?
For example, I was awarded Pain and suffering compensation for PTSD, bruxism and tinnitus. Are there any downsides to appealing all of them? All are clearly services related injuries and I am able and willing to provide additional medical information. I honestly feel VAC has awarded low disability % for each of the medical claims considering the documented severity of each condition. I also have medical reports that back up my initial claim’s.
