How it works.

1

Veterans complete intake with Pete.

Veterans land on Pete's site and walk through a 15-minute conversational intake. They share their service history, current rating, conditions, and goals, and upload supporting documents like denial letters, DD-214s, and prior rating decisions. Pete organizes everything into a structured case file.

2

The case is matched to you with a consult on your calendar.

Pete matches the case to your practice and books a consult directly on your calendar. You see the case package in your dashboard - claim summary, intake transcript, uploaded documents, initial claim assessment, case value estimate - well before the meeting. Most case packages are reviewable in under five minutes.

3

You meet with the veteran.

The veteran is briefed about who they're meeting and what to expect. You have the case file. The conversation is substantive from the first minute - no intake call, no document chase, no cold introduction.

4

The 21-22 is signed during or after the consult.

If you decide to take the case, the 21-22 (VA Form for Appointment of Individual as Claimant's Representative) is pre-populated and ready for electronic signature. The veteran signs, you countersign, and it's submitted to VBMS. If the case isn't a fit, you decline - no charge.

5

Pete delivers the full workup.

Within 5-10 days of signature, you get the full C-file analysis - claim theory grounded in the eFolder, rating math, evidence development plan, draft DBQ requests, and draft buddy statement templates. From there, the case is yours to run.

Cases worth your time.

Pete handles the case types VA-accredited attorneys actually want. Each comes with a full prep package - service verification, claim theory, evidence inventory, and uploaded documents.

Initial claims

$3,500-$8,000 typical fee · 8-15 hours per case

First-time service-connection claims with service verification, conditions claimed, and an organized evidence package.

Denials and appeals

$4,000-$10,000 typical fee · 12-20 hours per case

Cases with denial letters reviewed, denial reasoning analyzed, and an appeal theory drafted for your evaluation.

Rating increase requests

$3,500-$7,500 typical fee · 8-12 hours per case

Underrated conditions identified from the C-file, with a clear path to a higher rating documented.

Secondary condition claims

$3,500-$8,000 typical fee · 10-15 hours per case

Service-connected primaries identified, secondary conditions linked, and the nexus theory documented.

TDIU (Individual Unemployability)

$5,000-$12,000 typical fee · 15-25 hours per case

Employment history captured, occupational impact documented, and the TDIU case built around it.

Higher-level review and Board appeals

$4,000-$10,000 typical fee · 15-30 hours per case

Procedural posture identified, the error theory framed, and the record organized for HLR or BVA.

Fee and time ranges are typical for VA disability practice and are not guarantees. Pete does not set attorney fees.

Pricing.

Per signed case. No subscriptions.

Pete charges a flat services fee per signed case. There are no subscriptions, no monthly minimums, and no charges for cases you don't engage. The fee covers Pete's intake, case prep, and ongoing case file maintenance.

Design partner pricing applies for the first 10 signed cases - $500 per case - to acknowledge the early stage and your commitment as an early partner. After the first 10, standard pricing of $1,000 per signed case applies.

Pete's fee is a flat services charge for completed intake and case preparation. It is not contingent on case outcome and is not a percentage of any recovery. Pete is a services company, not a law firm. Attorney fees in VA matters are governed by 38 CFR 14.636.

Who Pete is for.

Pete works best for attorneys whose practice is structured for what we deliver.

Solo and small firms focused on VA disability.

Pete is built for attorneys whose VA disability practice is a primary or substantial part of their work - not generalists running VA as a side category.

Already paying for case acquisition.

If you currently pay for lead-gen, intake paralegals, or referral services, Pete replaces a meaningful chunk of that spend with better-prepped cases and clear per-signed-case pricing.

In high-veteran-population markets.

Texas, Florida, Virginia, the Carolinas, Georgia, Colorado, Tennessee, Arizona - Pete's case flow is strongest where the veteran population is densest. Federal practice means location isn't a hard constraint, but density matters for volume.

Building rather than maintaining.

Pete is a partnership, not a vendor relationship. The attorneys who get the most out of Pete are the ones actively growing their practice and willing to give feedback as the product matures.
