You should be able to email them. You should get an automated out of office reply with contact details for another attorney that you can call/email while yours is out.

Before you sign, did you have a meeting with your attorney?

Hello, soon-to-be Navy retiree here, added to the PRDL at that. The Command Career Counselor (CCC) told me yesterday that the command "wouldn't entertain procuring a flag for a medical retirement" and that I don't qualify for any LOAs. I had come to her with the question of where I could get a...

My timeline was similar with my IDES being initiated in August 2023, and I got my PEB findings back on June 12th, 2024. You should get your PEB findings and VA proposed rating at the same time, in the same letter. I signed with my PEBLO on June 25th, and my PEBLO said she would send it up to...

Do you have the updated link for this instruction? I tried searching for it.
