From ERE to VE: A 3-Step Strategy for Winning SSD Cases
Winning an SSD case is decided in preparation, not in the hearing room.
In this 45-minute panel followed by a 15-minute Q&A, Nikhil Pai of Chronicle, Luke Connally of Superinsight, and John Yent of Workscape Analytics walk through the complete three-step workflow that separates attorneys who are ready for VE testimony from those who are reacting to it.
This session is part of Chronicle's Advancing Technology in Disability Law series.
Why Attend:
You'll leave this session with a clear, practical understanding of how to:
Turn ERE files into a complete, organized case record where nothing is missing and records are always current
Synthesize medical evidence into a full RFC picture with source citations — so you know what the record means for your client's ability to work
Build a vocational argument from that RFC before you walk into the hearing room
Prepare in advance for VE testimony under SSR 24-3p — so you're responding from preparation, not from the bench
What You'll Learn:
How Chronicle's ERE monitoring creates a complete, current case record ready for the next stage of prep
How Superinsight synthesizes that record into a full RFC with source citations
How Workscape Analytics translates the RFC into vocational strategy and ORS-grounded arguments
What the complete workflow looks like live — from first ERE pull to hearing-ready argument, across all three platforms
Who Should Attend:
SSD and disability attorneys
Firm owners and managing partners
Paralegals and case managers responsible for hearing prep
