The only and last mention of Attorney Ryan Barshop that I'm aware of in this forum is from a 2016 thread by @Moofy :

https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/618205-experience-with-attorney-ryan-barshop-manila/

If a person reads through that entire thread it's obvious that Ryan Barshop became aware of the thread and "asked" someone to reply on his behalf.

I don't know him personally since he and I have never met ... but I do know he handles the financial benefits of disabled US Veterans since he handles mine (I am experiencing moderate to major challenges with him as my Payee).

Having said that, I am not interested in slandering him nor am I here to tarnish him as a person, but I am experiencing somewhat extreme circumstances due to lack of transparency and the fact that I'm not being given access to my BANK BALANCE and TRANSACTION HISTORY . . the two things that I actually need to know to plan my life properly . . people can change, and...  the things each of us do, say and think are chosen because we think it's the right decision.. ultimately though, I don't think he is making the right decision as my Payee.. and I'm interested in actually meeting him in-person someday to try and understand why he would treat me the way he does as my Fiduciary.

Maybe there is an explanation.. but unless the explanation is coupled with an accurate BANK BALANCE and TRANSACTION HISTORY . . I think that explanation will fall short . . Mr. Ryan Barshop, if you are reading this, kindly answer your phone calls, stop ignoring my messages, and help me gain access to the BANK BALANCE and TRANSACTION HISTORY of the Fiduciary account created for me and my family after serving in the US Military (I have requested this consistently for a year now, kindly oblige).

Thank you everyone, and if there is anyone else who has similar experiences, kindly share them with me but in a way that doesn't degrade Attorney Ryan Barshop.. and in a way that allows him to save face.

Yes, he was appointed by the US Veteran Affairs and I never knew about him before that.

 

Today I made my 33rd documented Request asking for my :

 

- Bank Statements.

- Transaction history.

 

To ensure my savings are still there, not "borrowed", etc., and I have received neither, even though I have officially requested for it from :

 

1. Attorney Ryan Barshop (my VA appointed Fiduciary).

 

2. His secretary.

 

3. His law firm, Enterline Partners.

 

4. The VA Fiduciary Hub.

 

5. Other branches in the US Veteran Affairs management.

 

6. My Field Examiner.

 

And I am consistently making efforts to document this, and request for my records and a change of Payee (Fiduciary).

 

I am not interested in harming him, his reputation or anyone else. I am only interested in ensuring my funds are properly accounted for, and now, it makes sense that I am now interested in changing my payee to a trusted relative.

If he has ghosted you for a year, focus on naming new payee and moving money NOW.

He still shows up on New York State Bar w active license so file immediate complaint .It will absolutely get him to respond. 
Don’t worry about getting him in trouble…he will be just fine..and you will get a response from the State Bar .
