Partly granted
The Board granted eligibility for the direct payment of attorney fees from benefits resulting from a TDIU rating but denied such fees for a 50% rating for migraine headaches.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the fact that the appellant provided valid representation after an initial decision, which resulted in past-due benefits for TDIU, but not for the headache rating claim.
