James Shipp Trieschmann Jr.

I contacted Mr. Trieschmann's office at the recommendation of another attorney. The office member who talked to me was barely understandable over all of the background noise at her end, but I signed the required paperwork. Weeks later I got a short letter saying they were no longer representing me ...with no explanation as to why they can't help me or recommendations on how I can move forward, or with who. Very frustrating.

Not sure was done for my case as I don’t remove having any contact during the process. What I am sure of is when I was approved for service-connection by the VA, I was contacted for payment. I overpaid this firm and notified them of the overpayment. I have notified them of this overpayment several... times and almost 5 months later I’m still waiting for them to send me the money back.

I always had to reach out and never got a straight answer. Apparently after over 48 months someone notice I had no claim like I had been asking about for 48 months. Always was the VA problem in being slow or system not updated or I can see what the practice can see. Anyways, from what I can tell a V...A Claim was setup September 2022 and approved in October 2022. Grateful for that much, but passed about 48 months loss for back pay. So, veterans beware in my book. Ken Mabry

I took on this company as a recommendation from Vet Comp and Pen. I didn’t even talk to anyone from Mr. Trieschmann’s office. Everything was done through email. I also gave them access to my eBenefits account to get the process started. I went the VSO route first and it resulted in a 10% ...rating for PTSD. I didn’t agree with this result and wanted to appeal. Trieschmann’s office didn’t do this, they started a duplicate intent to file instead. So then they had me fill out the claim form and write something basic in there and send it back. I got busy and forgot about the claim when I got a decision letter that my appeal was denied and then I was unservice connected for chronic fatigue syndrome and high blood pressure. I tried to get a hold of Mr Trieschmann but no one would ever answer. It’s like you don’t exist. So I decided to do my claim myself. I chose a higher level reviewer for my PTSD claim and filled out the necessary paperwork. If you go this route, choose to talk to the reviewer. It will definitely help. A few months after speaking to the higher level reviewer, I got a notice in the mail that I was bumped up to 30% for PTSD. Then I started getting letters from Mr. Trieschmann saying congratulations on your increase, you owe us X. I was pretty shocked to say the least since they didn’t do anything. I called and left a voicemail saying that they didn’t help me and they actually hurt me with my claims. Then they started blowing up my phone. It’s funny how they call back when they think you owe them money. Stay away from this fly by night lawyer. You can do your claims by yourself. The most important thing is to build a nexus for your disability. If you don’t have any type of medical nexus, you will be turned down. Best way to do this is through the VA medical facilities. I know people will cringe at the thought but it will be easier for the VA to pull your records. Good luck Patriots!
