I have received a Partially Favorable decision from Judge Southern within three weeks of appearing in front of her. To be honest, with me living in Michigan I was worried that I wouldn’t get a fair decision. She is very considerate and asks questions to help her better understand your condition. Tell the truth!!! Be honest and complete in your answers and you will have nothing to fear. She is fair and just. I am very grateful for the time and consideration she gave me.
What “J” listed previously on 5/4/17 is exactly how I felt with my 11/2021 hearing. So I copied “J’s” comments below. Judge Southern is a true asset and compassionate person….U Rock Judge Southern!!!
Not knowing what to expect, Judge Noceeba Southern was more friendly than I originally anticipated. She was very understanding, caring, compassionate, and showed empathy. I started getting uncomfortable with pain and felt as if my mind started racing during the proceeding. She allowed me to take a small break and leave the room. When I came back, she was compassionate enough to have left and bring me back a bottled water. I was very nervous and have been fighting this for years. Not knowing the outcome of this entire process, Judge Noceeba Southern was fair and honest in her decision and considered all the facts pertaining to my case.
She is, in my opinion, an asset to Social Security and to Columbus, Ohio ODAR because she is honest, fair, professional, and considers all facts. She made the entire experience less threatening and less scary and these are the kind of judges our country needs.
