Judge Alston is intelligent, wise, compassionate and thorough. There should be more judges like her.
She was so much nicer than I thought. She made the entire situation easier on me, even though I was having terrible anxiety attacks.
And she had a great sense of humor and was very friendly and chill person.
I found Judge Alston very thorough. She had true compassion toward me. Most are quick to judge because of my age, 47. To which my usual response would be “you lay pavers, shovel limerock & carry heavy equipment for 10+ yrs, & contact me when your 47” Judge Alston did not do that. Instead she reviewed my medical records very thoroughly and asked pertinent questions related to my injuries how they can to be and limitations.
I attended the hearing without an attorney, (fired them just weeks prior to hearing date notification). I had absolutely no idea what to expect, my anxiety was high & was in tears for the majority. She was amazing in keeping me calm & to focus. Her words soothing.
When it’s hard to even leave your home, physically & mentally it’s a nice relief to find someone in her position that is able to make someone as I feel comfortable enough to control my tears & answer the questions she had.
My decision has yet to come in,Whatever her decision, I am confident she will review all information submitted.
Five
I would rate this judge five stars because she looks at all the evidence before making decisions.Very happy!
Five stars! Compassionate and knowledgable. She kind of rambles through the medical records, commenting on things she notices. As an attorney I hardly asked a single question. The hearing was fast, the result good (and fair!).
