Jakob Raphael sought compensation for harm to profession, specifically for loss of pension rights as a teacher and preacher for the Jewish community in Zwickau, Germany. Before the Nazi era, he worked as a teacher for Jewish communities in Cologne until 1923 and Beckum from 1924 to 1938. He was employed in Zwickau from April 1, 1938, until he was forced to flee to England on June 16, 1939, after being interned in a concentration camp during the November 1938 pogroms, also known as Kristallnacht. After the war, he lived in Ruislip, United Kingdom, and later moved to Israel, residing in Jerusalem and then Ramat Gan. Initially, he was granted a monthly pension of 439.47 DM, effective from October 1, 1952, with a back payment of 15,687.63 DM. His pension was later recalculated and increased several times, reaching 725.13 DM per month in 1959. The URO in London initially handled the case, with support from the Association of Jewish Refugees in Great Britain and correspondence with the Conference on Jewish Material Claims against Germany, before the file was transferred to the URO in Tel Aviv.
