According to the Federal Courts who have had to overrule many of her very poor decisions, she has been so inept she should be removed. Several of her denials were later overruled due to ” Incompetent Legal” knowledge this is not good.
Several people who have waited for her decisions have passed away due to her incompetent and neglect for the facts, rule of law and her ineptitude rulings. As some has said she is over paid, a protected government worker who thinks everyone is on SSA, SSI, SSDI and or disabled.
She comes from privileged up bring and thus she feels entitled to destroy people lives, she is paid over $187,000.00 plus benefists so she has no idea what it is to be disabled or try to live off SSA, SSI,SSDI.
Horrible judge. She should be removed from a position where she can impact people’s lives. I hope some day she has to experience watching someone she loves struggle to get the disability they need only to get turned down by an arrogant judge like herself.
Was extremely intimidated due to stories I had heard about this Judge. Stories passed on by legal representation and medical staff. Although I am not confident of the outcome of my hearing I do feel like the hearing went well. Judge Everstine was polite and professional. Now I wait and if denied I won’t give up. Good luck to all of you going through the process.
I thought this judge was compassionate, caring and left me feeling high hopes. I think too many people lie and aren’t truly disabled and i am glad she doesn’t just let everyone go through the system and approve everyone that walks in her room. Not everyone deserves it. She’s not only intelligent but she’s beautiful so i can see how this may intimidate many and catch them off guard. Keep up the fantastic job, Judge Everstine.
Her denial rate not only speaks for itself, but with a Claimants rate of 11%.She has Determine that 89% of everyone that come before her is lying and that the treating Doctors is also lying. She need to be removed at once.This should send an alarm to all who come before her,And all of her Cases should be reexamine and I can assure you about 60% of those, would be determine to be Granted.PLEASE GET THE RID OF HER.
Never maintained eye contact. My DTRs case should have been won, after three years of doing all the right things. The system states keep seeing those expensive doctors, keep taking those 300.00/month meds, keep those records coming in. How was she suppose to manage that trick for three years. Her attorney and psychiatrist were floored, shocked and saddened by the unfavorable outcome. She cannot survive the “work world”, which has been proven. She has mental and physical disabilities, she is a tapestry of disconnects and dysfunction. All she wants is to rent a little room, take care of her dog and survive. Shame on you Judge Everstine. I suggest you take a good look at your current career and act accordingly.
Her denial rate speaks for itself! Her staff told me I didn’t need legal representation, which was the worse advice I’ve ever received, and am still paying for that! Her decision letter had contradictions in every paragraph! Despite over 150 medical records I submitted showing I was disabled, Ms. Everstine determined I wasn’t. Be prepared to go the distance if your case is heard by this judge and don’t go without representation!
Ms. Everstine bases her decisions on the medical evidence. More people think they are disabled than they really are.
I agree she shuld be removed
Ms. Everstine is a very rude and non responsive individual. She is very subjective and not Equitable in her decisions regarding people that are less fortunate than herself.
