Have you ever heard the story about the Starfish and the Clam? We all know that the Clam is many more times stronger than the Starfish is and yet the Starfish almost always is able to pry the clam open for a delicious meal. Why? Well, the Starfish wraps itself around the clam and exerts a very small amount of pressure on the clam and never, ever gives up the battle. However long it takes that Starfish relentlessly and tirelessly keeps that small amount of pressure on the clam until the clam gives into battle fatigue and exhaustion. To me, CCK Law is the Starfish and the VA is the clam. I may give into Frustration and Exhaustion while fighting the VA but CCK Law will not.... and I think the VA is aware of this fact and knows CCK Law is not going to give up or go away, Ever! So, do I think it helps to have a good lawyer in in your corner when wrestling with the VA? Yes, I most certainly do.
