Program Summary

 

Your Caseload Knows Where You Win. Ask It

The data is already in your office. Every closed case carries information — which ALJs grant, which hearing offices move, which claim types and stages produce results — and most firms never ask. This session shows representatives how to turn their own case data into insight.

The analysis no longer requires a data team. Today's AI tools make it possible to see grant rates by ALJ, hearing office, claim type, and stage; to find where cases stall; and to spot which evidence patterns track with favorable outcomes. The demonstration draws on aggregated, de-identified outcomes from thousands of SSD cases and public ALJ decision data.

You leave with the working start: concrete questions to put to your own data, and a framework for finding the bottlenecks in your own practice.

Eligible for up to 1 CLE Credit Hour

Agenda

SESSION 1 – Know Your Numbers: How to Use AI to Analyze your Disability Practice | 1:30pm – 2:30pm

Your caseload is already telling you how to win more cases; most firms just never ask. This session shows representatives how to turn their own case data into insight: grant rates by ALJ, hearing office, claim type, and stage; where cases stall; and which evidence patterns track with favorable outcomes. We’ll demonstrate how today’s AI tools make this analysis possible without a data team, using aggregated, deidentified outcomes from thousands of SSD cases and public ALJ decision data. Attendees leave with concrete questions to put to their own data and a framework for finding bottlenecks.
