I-797 error- Misspelled Petitioner Name

My H1 visa was approved but the I-797 approval notice has an error-- they dropped the last alphabet of my company's name on the I797 and I94 card.

Will this cause any issues when I try to get my visa stamped? My I-129 petition has the right information and the error was on the past of USCIS. My lawyer says that there is very little chance that the Service Centre will respond and actually re-issue a new approval notice with the correct petitioner name. My lawyer says I should take the risk and explain to the visa officers my case as this is a trivial issue and only the last alphabet has been missed.
I am not sure I want to take the risk. Has anybody faced such an issue? Has anybody had success in getting their I-797 re-issued. Please help

I do not see any issue with this,But still it is worthful getting it corrected when you have a chance.Murhty chat suggests to file the I-824 form (approval notice adjustments) and getting corrected.But USCIS guidelines shows to talk the customer service if you have any errors on the document.I am having this similar issue but with dates.They were suppose to issue 3 years on my h1 but they issued only 2 years.I am planning my lawyer to talk to them first and see what they say.If it does not work send a cover letter explaining situation and copy of the approval notice.Hope this helps.Please let me know if you have any updates once you talked to them or your plans on fixing this issue.You suggestions may help me also....
