Guard and Reserve VA claims fail at the threshold, not the medicine. Active duty, ACDUTRA, drill weekends, state orders: what counts, and how to prove it.

A court found Veterans Guardian collected over $250 million from veterans while unaccredited. The VA had sent cease-and-desist letters in 2019 and 2024.

The VA processed three million claims this year and grants over 60 percent. Only 3 percent are reviewed at the Board. The case for appealing, in the VA's numbers.

Trajector filed Chapter 11 after class actions, freezing the suits. New York and Illinois attorneys general say they'll act anyway. What veterans who paid should know.

An executive order aims to cut claim times by up to 30 days for separating service members. What it changes, who it skips, and how to use the window.

The VA proposed shorter applications for claims, DIC, and pension, with new forms due around December. What it fixes, what it can't, and why to file now.

Texas secured a deceptive-practices judgment against the biggest claims-coaching company. How the model works, three questions that unmask it, and the free path.

Most veterans read the rating and stop. The five checks to run on every VA decision letter, and where skipped conditions and wrong dates like to hide.

For many conditions the VA must presume service connection. The exposure lists, the combat rules, and the one-year rule new veterans keep missing.
