Why Most VA Claims Fall Apart

VA claims fail when details get lost. This logbook exists to make sure they don’t.

VA claims rarely fail because a condition doesn’t exist. They fail because symptoms aren’t documented clearly, timelines aren’t consistent, and examiners aren’t given the information they need to connect the dots. This logbook exists to make sure the details that matter are recorded while they’re still accurate.

Because memory fades. Records don’t.

Say it accurately without minimizing, exaggerating, or freezing up.

Avoid gaps, mixed timelines, and unclear answers that weaken your record.

C&P exams are not treatment appointments. They are evaluations, and how information is communicated matters.

This guide does not provide legal or medical advice. It helps you organize and communicate your experience accurately.
