Schedule a consultation today: https://calendly.com/vetlawoffice  Should you attend that extra VA C&P exam, or is it smarter to skip it? VA-accredited attorney and combat veteran Ed Farmer discusses this strategic dilemma that many veterans face during the claims process.  In this episode, Ed explains why the VA sometimes requests additional exams after you’ve already submitted a strong independent medical opinion or nexus letter—and the risks and rewards of refusing to go. You’ll learn about potential consequences of missing a VA exam, how the “benefit of the doubt” rule can work in your favor, and why some adjudicators may not interpret the rules in your best interest. Ed breaks down when skipping the exam might give your claim more weight, but also why it can lead to longer wait times and more appeals. With practical advice and caution around high-stakes decisions, this episode empowers you to make an informed choice about your VA claim.
