ALJ Swayze is a good judge – he is diligent with his knowledge of the case, and with his knowledge of the process. The biggest issue I have found with him is that he likes to micromanage his hearings to the point of correcting VEs and attorneys on their respective testimony and questioning. This comes off as aggressive and off-putting and can be demoralizing for an unaware claimant. Overall, however, he is relatively fair and reasonable.
Very detailed oriented knows the file expects the attorney to know the file . Spends a long time with vocational issues.
