Disability Benefits Decoded

Win the benefits you’ve earned... without the guesswork.  Host Stacey Chillemi and Attorney  Diane C. Haar , founder of Hawaii Disability Legal Services, LLC , break down Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and VA disability—from first application to appeals and back pay. Every episode slices through the red tape and turns VA/SSA jargon into do-this-next steps—service connection, C&P exams, ratings, TDIU, nexus letters, ALJ hearings, overpayments, and more. You’ll get field-tested strategies for veterans, families, and caregivers across Hawaiʻi, the Pacific Territories, and the wider Pacific. ** NOTE: This show is for educational purposes, not legal advice.
