This Judge has made a decision in favor of the Italian biased threats I received from another Mike Erculiani. “I’ll make your life so miserable you’ll wish you were dead”. I have brain injuries since my youth, deaf in my right ear, loud ringing in my head, bad rotor cuffs and knees with ocd, social deficiencies, and established PTSD since I was a teenager. I was sexual, physically, and mentally abused as a child and he deliberately denied my social security disability yet I witness others even Italian in better condition than me who have been awarded. I do not recommend this Judge to anyone.
I would like to thank your Honor for your immense contribution to the evaluations of the astronomical number of cases of individuals who have over their years of gainful employment have accrued work credits through Social security. The awarding of a favorable decision will ensure the security in the disabled individual’s latter portion of their life. Your role in this administration is greatly acknowledged.

We have lived through 7 years of hell thanks to this judge. My husband is not a comatose vegetable, so that’s enough for him to believe he can work a traditional full-time job. We have lost almost everything over those 7 years, and despite giving him more scientific evidence and more corroborating testimony from recognized medical experts, he refuses to believe my husband and thinks that because he can do things like play a video game now and then, he can’t possibly be as sick as he says.
I don’t know how this awful man sleeps with himself at night, but I hope one day he fully understands what his decisions do to people who are struggling through already difficult times. I can’t imagine how many other peoples’ lives he’s ruined in addition to ours.
I’m not giving 5 stars because I obviously haven’t gotten a decision yet, but I had my hearing today and he seemed pretty fair. Yes he was a little tough, as expected, but I at least felt like he listened and I had a fair hearing. I’m hoping for a positive outcome.
This judge didn’t even look at the case until day of hearing. The surgeons report of claimants disability he gave “minimal consideration” and the Funtional Capacity woman hired by SSA who said that there were no jobs for the claimant he also gave “minimal consideration”. He was acting like a physician, lawyer and executioner at this hearing. He is unfair, and doesn’t review ANY case until claimant is there for hearing. He is a DISGRACE.
