Nick Scripter argued his first oral argument before the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims last week in Hoffman v. Collins. Amy Odom co-chaired. The case is about whether Mr. Hoffman's initial claim could attach to his Intent to File.

Aid and Attendance and Housebound benefits can significantly increase a veteran’s compensation, but many veterans do not realize they may qualify. In this short video, we break down what these benefits are designed for and what to know before you file.

CCK Law Partner Zachary Stolz joined CNBC from Washington, DC to discuss how the firm advances veterans disability law at the federal level.
