Join VetLaw100 for an informative session focused on Total Disability based on Individual Unemployability (TDIU)—the VA benefit that can pay veterans at the 100% disability rate when service‑connected conditions prevent them from working, even if their combined rating is below 100%. This webinar explains who may qualify for TDIU, how schedular and extraschedular rules work, and why the effective date can make a major difference in a veteran’s back pay.​

For veterans and their families, this session walks through common TDIU pitfalls, how to talk about work history and income, and practical steps to strengthen a current claim or appeal a past denial. Whether you are applying for TDIU for the first time, already rated below 100% but unable to work, or helping a loved one understand their options, you will leave with clearer guidance.

Learn the two Federal Circuit cases that protect lay evidence in VA disability claims—and how to use them to win more claims for veterans. This 30-minute webinar teaches VSOs the legal standards governing lay evidence, why VA's boilerplate rejections are often illegal, and the practical four-step toolkit for drafting credible, competent statements that survive scrutiny. See real examples of weak versus strong lay evidence, learn how to identify red flags signaling legal error, and get language you can use immediately in higher-level reviews and supplemental claims.

Perfect for Veterans Service Officers, claim agents, and advocates who want to maximize lay evidence in initial claims and recognize when to escalate to attorneys for Board or CAVC appeal.
