More cases, prepared faster — without adding staff or payroll.
A firm grows on process, not headcount. Much of SSA disability work is onerous, repetitive, and nearly identical on every file — which means it can be automated and standardized. PCL takes that work off your people: the intake call, the records chase, the case development, and the hearing prep — so your firm moves faster and takes on more without a bigger payroll.
On most files, roughly 80% of the preparation is the same work, done again.
It is repetitive enough to automate and standardize — and that is the part PCL carries. One Blueprint is where it lands:
So run the number most firms are too busy to run: if that 80% stopped consuming your team’s week —
- What it gives back in hours and payroll
- Whether your staff finally get real time off
- Or whether you point them at client relationships and winning more cases
That is the firm PCL is built to make possible. Here is what it does, and how.
Just need a case hearing-ready? Start with a Blueprint.
For firms that want hearing preparation and nothing heavier yet. You hand us the record; PCL maps the record and the argument your attorney needs — the strongest path to allowance, the gaps that could undo it, and the questions to put to the vocational expert. It is the quickest way to put PCL to work on a case you already have.
- The theory of the case, and the listing and grid paths that are live
- The evidence that supports the RFC — and the evidence that undercuts it
- The contradictions in the record a judge could surface
- The vocational hypotheticals to carry into the hearing
One standard of case development — across every representative.
Your best hearing attorney develops a file one way. The associate three months in develops it another. PCL closes that gap. Every case runs through the same development standard — the same domains, the same evidence tests, the same adversarial pass that argues the case for denial first and then answers it — so the strength of the record no longer rides on who happened to work it.
- All 19 development domains scored the same way, every time
- A visible quality-review gate on every output
- A dual read — what the system surfaces, what your representative sees, and where they differ — so nothing is taken on faith
- Draft lineage on every document, from first projection to the version your representative reviews and adopts
Everything is surfaced for your attorney or accredited representative to review. PCL prepares; the human decides.
See how case development works →Two add-on modules that take the onerous work off your staff.
This is where the 80% goes. Each is an optional add-on — turn on what your firm needs.
DIET — intake
Add-on moduleDIET — the Disability Intake and Evaluation Team.
DIET conducts the intake call, and it is built for how disabled claimants actually communicate. It gets a complete, usable intake from people who cannot stay on topic, who fatigue cognitively, or who go tangential — meeting them at their own pace and in their own words, offering breaks before fatigue, and treating “I don’t know” as a real answer rather than a gap to paper over. It then drafts the SSA forms from the conversation, every field traced back to what the caller said. Your representative reviews and signs; DIET never touches a signature.
See DIET →Office Communications — pursuit
Add-on moduleChases every record — on a cadence that cannot quietly die.
Every records request, source-statement request and status check becomes a tracked pursuit with a next-action date. It makes the follow-up calls — disclosure first, identity confirmed before any detail is spoken — and compresses to daily in the two weeks before a hearing. Every attempt is logged in a form you can put in front of a judge when a provider or an agency delayed.
See Office Communications →That is how a firm takes on more cases without adding headcount — the first call is answered and the follow-up never lapses.
We bridge the hypotheticals.
A disability case turns on the vocational hypothetical — the limitations the judge puts to the expert, and the jobs that survive them. Most firms rebuild that bridge from the RFC by hand, file by file, if they build it at all. PCL surfaces it for attorney review — grounded in Bureau of Labor Statistics occupational data, with a strict reading and a lenient reading when a limitation can be read two ways, and every figure traceable to its published source.
Your attorney walks into the hearing already holding the questions, the numbers, and the source behind each one — leading the record instead of reacting to the vocational expert.
PCL surfaces these figures for attorney review. It does not determine any issue of disability or job availability.
Put PCL on a handful of your cases.
Firms start with a small, structured pilot — a few live cases developed end to end, with a before-and-after your managing partner can see. A short way to find out whether it changes your records and your hearings, with no long commitment to get there.
