Granted
The Board granted the appellant's claim for direct payment of attorney fees based on past-due benefits awarded in a December 2023 rating decision.
The deciding factor: Eligibility to the direct payment of attorney fees was granted as the Veteran continuously pursued his increased rating claim, which included an implicit request for TDIU, and the fee agreement met VA requirements.
