6 of their representatives publish no direct number
For 6 of the 119 people Arizona Department of Veterans Services has accredited, the phone number the VA lists is an organization switchboard shared across many states rather than a line to that person. That is worth knowing before you rely on reaching one specific representative: ask for them by name and VA registration number, or ask for whoever is available.

What any of them may charge you
- VSO representatives cannot charge a fee. Ever. Not for filing, not for "document review", not a percentage of back pay (38 CFR 14.636(b)).
- Accredited attorneys and claims agents may charge, but only after the VA has issued an initial decision on the claim (38 USC 5904; 38 CFR 14.636(c)). Anyone charging to file your first claim is either not accredited or not allowed to.
- Nobody who is not on the VA's roster may prepare or prosecute your claim for a fee (38 CFR 14.629), whatever they call themselves.
