They may generally charge for review after the claimant receives notice of VA’s initial decision, subject to the applicable rules and a written fee agreement.

The 20% limit applies to fees paid directly by VA from past-due benefits. It is not a universal cap on other arrangements, which must be reasonable. Ask how fees and expenses work, what happens if the claim is unsuccessful, and where the agreement must be filed.
