Good practical advice on fully developed claims. Clear explanation of the Appeals Modernization System and how supplemental claims can perpetuate a claim post-BVA decision. Module 1's slide overlay re: Unauthorized Use was distracting and made reading the slides difficult (unnecessarily so, IMHO).

I thought the CLE course was very informative. Coming from a family of veterans who have struggled with obtaining their benefits and working with some veterans who have also struggled I found the information useful as most try to use the ebenefits platform which apparently is not the best route at this time. Understanding the simplest and most efficient way to streamline the process is important and I appreciated the candid information that was presented. I have not read the entire book so I do not feel I can give adequate feedback on it yet but I am sure I will find the information within the book just as useful.

Your "How to Apply..." book is outstanding! While I have been accreditedas an attorney since 2010, I did not believe I had the background to do the work correctly. It's very tough when you have no one turn to for help. I took the CLE's and got your book. While I have only gotten through the Pension part, it has been enough to get me on solid footing - I think.

Course was clear, informative, relevant, and easy to follow. Annual Accreditation assistance was particularly helpful, along with NC Bar CLE submission process. Would prefer book in electronic/online/cloud format vs hard copy or disk! My newest computers do not even have disk drives. Also, certain aspects on the provided forms disk are other than mac friendly (ex. macros do not work).

I have attended many 3 hour VA Benefits seminars since 2008. This is [the] only one that really teaches you how to practice in this field. TOP NOTCH.

"Very good course. Always excellent to review basic rules, etc. Audio could have been clearer with better enunciation. Also, it was dragging a little when your were reading slides (practically) toward the end of appeals"

"I've loved the book since I bought it; it's already decorated with plenty of sticky notes. I thought the CLE course was excellent. Thank you for breaking it up into modules. I've already referred back to it and rewatched several modules. Also, thank you for making it to easy to mail the certificate to the VA."

"I found it very comprehensive and informative. This is probably the third CLE I have had on VA benefits, and I actually have my first VA case that I am doing pro bono. This course allowed me to clarify my client's position, and prepare me to make the claim. It was only after watching the video was I prepared to make the claim, feeling fully confident that I could guide my client through the process."

"I thought this was great. As a veterans attorney, the one thing I hear most often is frustration with the communication from the VA - the lack therof, the boilerplate incomprehensible language on letters, not understanding the legalese in the regulations. This book does a wonderful job breaking things down without the legalese. It's a great tool for a veterans lawyer with the initiative to learn more or for a veteran trying to navigate the process."
- S. Schauerte

"I would only recommend it to a rookie who needed the CLE hours b/c the "narrators", especially the you[ng] man, were reading throughout and the young man sounded bored with the material. I can read: give me up to date information NOT in the book or Claim Spt Data Disk."
- T. H. Eagen

"This was a very complete, useful and practical guide to understanding the VA system and filing process of different benefits. The incredibly detailed explanations include examples and illustration and a plethora of resources. I wish they had a roundtable discussion with a workshop - (perhaps someday in the near future). Thank you for such an informative and practical CLE!"
- L. M. Marquez Carrasquillo

"Information is excellent, but audio presentation is lacking. Slowly reading the Power Point slides is a waste of time. I can read faster than you talk. Tell me something that is not on the slides, or at least give examples to make it interesting. This almost put me to sleep. Having said that, it is good training and full of valuable information. The book is outstanding."
- M. Warren

"I work with veterans on a weekly basis trying to help them receive benefits from the government. This CLE and the included the book are very resourceful tools that I have watched and read and loved since I purchased it a couple weeks ago. The data disk is complete with all the forms you need to apply for the benefits. All the information is straightforward and easy to understand. I would recommend this course to anyone facing the difficult task of applying for benefits. I used to make a lot of mistakes and claims would take months and months to prepare and process. Now the process is much quicker for me and my clients. I am very satisfied with this book."
