Judge Asbille was the judge whom I was hoping I would has as my presiding judge on my case. Having been through so much heartache, dissapointment, suffering, depression, health issues, financial crisis, and total loss of everything including any sense of what it meant to exist; today he has given me hope that I now have a chance at rebuilding my life. Thank you Judge Asbille for everything you have done for me. God bless!

Completely rude crude and socially unacceptable courtroom experience with this one. It is quite obvious she is a mean sick mentally "abusive" person and to do this to people that are really down shows what type of person you are dealing with. Hard to believe she is allowed to remain a judge and our tax dollars pay for this sort of person to be employed...also its transparent she gets a very sick mental kick out of it that actually charges her mental and physical batteries, what a sicko! I was denied by her but was later approved by another judge so I know what an awful UNJUST experience she is! Rotten awful human being

She took the few iffy statements in my records and ran with it. I was denied. I had the feeling though as i left the hearing that day. She's horrible and attacks you, watch out. I'm going to file an appeal now. Horrible experience.

Rude, mentally abusive and invasive. Doesn't believe you have a health condition if it is not all black and white. My condition is a new condition and doesn't have a whole lot of information on it. Brought up my biological father, which had nothing to do with the case. Her tactics are to bully the plaintiff into answering a certain way to break them down. The psychologist in the room was no better, maybe even worse. Isn't she a mother? Or does she treat her kids this way too? Nothing nice to say about her. Would she like it if someone bullied her and was as invasive as she is? Would she like it if someone was relentless and pushy?I highly doubt it. Worst judge I've come across EVER.

Just had a hearing w judge bretthauer,I am non=biased,because there has not been a decision obviously.im completely happy the way my hearing went.she definitely knew all of my medical history,seemed like she knew all the symptoms,gave me all the time I needed to explain myself....yea, she drilled me w questions,but that's what she's paid to do.if u got denied,probably cause ur not disabled....sour grapes.

Judge Brooks failed to administer justice to a truly disabled person. My wife, who us unable to work, in constant pain, and for many years cannot keep a normal schedule was denied. SSI denied looking at this case as if were ruled justly. NOT SO....... I am in a position where i see able bodied people who are physically able to work and keep a normal schedule, who collect SSI benefits, Just about EVERYDAY. Anything other than a favorable decision is UNACCEPTABLE.

Dear Judge Daniel Dadabo, I wanted to thank you for given me the chance to take back and regain control of my life. You and Nash Disability Law and North River mental Health, Illinois Masonic and Old Irving Park Medical have helped me under stand a part of my life that I didn't not believe. My life long struggles with mental illines and bullying and abuse have not been easy and I suspect that with continued therapy and help from the SSA I can become a productive and postive individual again. I didn't want to admit there was anything wrong, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia and autisim are not thing that you want to tell people there is such a stgma around that poeple either shun you or attack you and abuse you, which I have experienced my whole life til this day. Every day is a struggle just to be able to put close to clean myself properly, even being able to talk to some are accept a simple hug or hand shake any time some seems out of order I can become enraged or scared like a child. It makes it impossible to have any sort of relationships or to go to school or hold on to a job or go shopping! Once Again I would ask for your continued help along with help from Nash Disability and the SSA perhaps I can get better and get the help I need repair my life and take back control of my life from those who have taken so much away from me! Best regards, Gregory Tarczynski

Recently had a hearing with Judge Dudabo believe he is intelligent informed Judge no nonsense kind of person he confirms submitted medical documents. I recently submitted a lengthy comment about the toll this process took on my life maybe to much personal detail however. I believe reason the process takes so long for the really sick people to be heard is due to the people who clog up the system with ridiculous or false claims. My biggest concern is my Attorney not making it perfectly clear during hearing when my illness began which was about 4 years ago which has not only left me sick, and stress and, totally bankrupt and now terrified.

37 year old former public defender gets appointed to the federal bench? Hardly experienced in SSA law. She's fulfilling the SSA mission to deny every possible claim. Why bother seeing your own doctor for years on end. She rejects their opinions in favor of some hack doctor who couldn't get a real job so works doing SS evals for $150.00 a pop. Just the latest in SSA's Ayn Randian-esque implementation of disability law. Such a shameful and disgraceful reflection of our era's governance. How many people with Stage III cancer, undergoing chemo for a year, are actively working full time? You are a despicable person, Jessica.

Judge Inouye has rapidly established herself as a rising star among the federal administrative law judge corps. Her vast prior litigation experience has been a boon to her acknowledged superior ability in bringing out the truth in cases that she hears. Cases typically present inconsistencies between testimony and the medical record and other evidence. Judge Inouye is recognized as having a superb ability to resolve these inconsistencies in a manner that follows the law applicalbe to disability cases. Of course, not all claimants are happy as some are under the impression that merely applying for disability guarantees that payments will soon follow. In her difficult job, Judge Inouye's top-notch judicial temperment stands her in good stead. I see the above comments came from another stooge from SSA or perhaps the judge herself either way take it worth a grain of salt.

Had Ms Inouye for my case and found her to be aloof,condescending and not interested in anything that the treating Drs had to say of the person filing for SSDI. It seemed as though her decision was already made before the case was even presented based on the readings of a Doc in a box a non treating physician who reads files only. Ms Inouye is young, ambitious and has bigger ideas for herself in life then that of an ALJ and seems to have no cares whose life she has to ruin to get there. My opinion of this is based on my dealings with her and her ratio of approval and denials which turns out to be an approval rating of Approximately 18-20% NOT GOOD for anyone going in front of her.Based on the above mentioned percentages. I find Ms Inouye to be a failure as a public servant and would be perhaps better in a private setting not sitting on a federal bench collecting a public pension and pay. Ms nouye seems to have forgotten that she is A) A public servant B)SSDI a prepaid disability plan for when one becomes injured and their ability to provide for themselves becomes compromised. C)A treating Dr's testimony should always take precedence over hired paper reading non treating Dr. These are just of the few observances I encountered in my case, that I feel were wrong with her conclusion and in reading some of the above at least I am not alone. My hope in the future is to NOT encounter this woman again, may she get where ever she feels she needs to be without to much carnage in her wake.

Judge Inouye recently heard my case and while not knowing her decision yet, I felt she asked relevant and intelligent questions to ascertain my disability case. Not having an attorney represent me, I feel she will give a fair decision. That is all one can ask for.

Honorable Judge Mathews gave me a partial favorable decision. After reading his decision and changing my onset date a 1 1/2 year later was appropriate in my mind. He was very thorough. Took advice of all my medical sources. The hearing lasted 20 minutes. In my mind, he did a great job.

I had this judge before. All that I will say is I hope God softens her heart. I felt like trash at my hearing. This Judge made me feel like a criminal. Not everyone that tries to get SSD or SSI deserve it but many of us do. Many of us suffer with illnesses you could never grasp unless you are in our shoes. Judges rule according to law but we don't deserve to be treated as garbage. I feel she judged my case before I ever spoke a word. I felt like a science project a specimen. Maybe she's tired of her job and has become heartless who knows. But God can soften any cold heart. It may be too late for me I lost. but there is someone out there that her ruling can change their life. If she is fair. I pray for this judge that she understands that people can have illnesses for many years over 10 15 20. I pray God Works on this judges heart and compassion. I never experienced mfeeling less than human until my hearing, feeling worthless, and reduced to nothing by this judge. This was by far one of the top worst experiences of my life.

I saw her back in July of 2017. The hearing was emotionally exhausting. I slept for about 5 hours straight when I got home. I was mentally drained. I found her to be very intimidating, however I would have thought this about any Judge and didn't hold that against her. The worst part of the hearing were the weeks after. Having to once again accept and take a good hard look my mental health issues and how greatly they really do impact my life in sucb a large way caused my symptoms to flare up worse then normal for awhile. I experienced a spike in feelings of shame, guilt, fear, paranoia and anxiety along with more extreme mood swings for weeks. This week my case was closed with a favorable decision, and although the hearing was a terrible experience for me I feel that she was just doing her job and did it well.

I disagree with the above post. I went into my hearing a little under-prepared and Judge Kendall assisted me in re-requesting additional medical records and rescheduled my hearing in order for me to make sure my file was complete, accurate and contained all pertinent information in order for SSA to make a decision regarding my disability claim. I have yet to hear whether I am approved but I truly feel that Judge Kendall was kind and clear and concise in her questions, in her answers to my questions and in her follow-up questions. Although she was firm & no-nonsense- like, I feel that she takes her responsibility seriously and really does put in the time to review and understand the cases before her. She won't be your best friend, but she will give you all the time and respect to plead your case and hear you out thoroughly.

I just wanted to say a few things. I have epilepsy, both gran mal and petit mal seizures. 2-3 gran mal a month, 4-5 petit mal a month.In my condition I cannot walk or drive to any job or even work at a job without an episode happening that could cause a life threatening injury for that matter. This is proven in my medical records. Yet somehow despite my claim medical records and all the evidence, Judge Lee Lewin denied me. Soon i will be forced to drive to a job so I can make ends meet where I will be in danger of having a seizure in hazardous places. Each day of my life is a roll of the dice not knowing when its coming or where I will be. I hope you can sleep at night. It makes me sick. You have no idea what i go through. I hope you read this.

Judge Lewin was a fair and understanding judge. Despite her not approving my disability request, her reasons were justified. If you have to go in front of Judge Lewin, you will get a fair decision.

Heavily biased against the mentally ill. Cherry-picks statements from doctors to support her own conclusions while completely ignoring the opinions of other treatment professionals. Focuses on minor issues such as grooming (she puts a *lot* of stock in appearance) and uses them to make completely unfounded allegations of malingering. If you haven't had the money to obtain tests or get treatment for a problem, she'll use it against you. Takes your own words out of context, twists them around, and makes it appear as if you said something you didn't. Dismisses evidence when it's inconvenient. This sorry excuse for a human being has her mind made up in advance and if it's set against you, you're screwed. I would give her no stars if possible. Thanks, Judge, for calling me a liar, relying entirely on what that fool of a doctor said, ignoring the views of the person who sees me every week (if you'd read her notes you'd know I'm really not that well-groomed), contradicting yourself, saying I refuse to take one class medication I actually take (could've just checked the list I gave you) and failing to notice that I had to tell Dr. Useless THREE TIMES that I COULDN'T take another class because the side effects are too severe. I don't have the energy to go to the appeals council. I'm done.

Thanks, Judge, for calling me a liar, relying entirely on what that fool of a doctor said, ignoring the views of the person who sees me every week (if you'd read her notes you'd know I'm really not that well-groomed), contradicting yourself, saying I refuse to take one class medication I actually take (could've just checked the list I gave you) and failing to notice that I had to tell Dr. Useless THREE TIMES that I COULDN'T take another class because the side effects are too severe. I don't have the energy to go to the appeals council. I'm done.
Heavily biased against the mentally ill. Cherry-picks statements from doctors to support her own conclusions while completely ignoring the opinions of other treatment professionals. Focuses on minor issues such as grooming (she puts a *lot* of stock in appearance) and uses them to make completely unfounded allegations of malingering. If you haven't had the money to obtain tests or get treatment for a problem, she'll use it against you.

Sylke's at it again! Did she think a paranoid person wouldn't notice that she rigged the game to get my hearing back in her courtroom? I tried to end my life a month after that supremely ******** *** ******** *** published her error-plagued decision. The average wait time for a hearing before an ALJ in OKC is 10 months after ODAR confirms receipt of request. Because Sylke wanted me to appear before her smirking face again, my wait time will be 13 months. I see you, Sylke! There are 15 judges, and ODAR expects me to believe that some people just happen to get the same judge twice in a row. My case wasn't remanded. It's not as though the rest are much better; Jennie McClean is as crazy as I am and their newest hire has an approval rate in the teens. Hateful old right-wingers like Gordon, Linehan, Fulton and Shepherd (who are all regularly reversed by the federal appeals court) would make sure nobody got disability if they could. The OKC office is a nest of social Darwinists who want to wipe sick people off the face of the earth. Still, I'd like to lose to a judge who didn't decide two years ago that I'm a faker. Note: If you want to avoid Judge ********** McClean, hire Miles Mitzner. The guy fired me, called me an ******* in a letter, and I'm pretty sure he told just about every other disability attorney in the Greater OKC area to stay away from me, but he's a great lawyer who's racked up a ton of wins and he'll keep you away from Judge McNutty. You might end up with Sylke, who will decide you're malingering because she's too ****** to understand a depressed woman can have a matted mass of unwashed hair and still make it look neat by pulling it back into a bun, but better than the lady who thinks fans can keep the germs away from her.

While this judge did approve my SSI they requested that I have a representative payee. The reason being for this was they say that I have a daa or drug and alcohol abuse problem. I got a DUI when I was 19 and use medical marijuana to control my seizures which have caused me to be clinically dead over seven times. These two things were enough for the judge to decide that I am incapable of managing my own expenses. The term daa is outdated and the DSM defines substance use disorders as maladaptive patterns of substance use that lead to clinically significant impairment or distress. Current medical use of cannabis would not be considered maladaptive but for some reason this judge thinks so. The substance use disorder is described as when a person's use of alcohol or another substance leads to health issues or problems at work, school, or home. My neurologist is fully aware of my cannabis use and I was advised to wait on a card for medical use until after I was approved for SSI since it is only legal at a state level. This judge and their determinations are a joke and extremely biased.

I reviewed the comments about all Chicago Judges; I had a hearing before her and she seems knowledgeable and listened, she allowed the hearing to last over an hour. Other comments about the Chicago judges seem to be sour grapes by Obama supporters. They got the President and the Administration they asked for, now live with it.

Pretty argumentative judge she tends to give a medical opinion about the case and cites to the record incorrectly.. Listen close you will need to correct her characterization of the medical evidence. Submitted a brief in the case and she did not read it before the hearing but still asked for a theory of the case wanting the attorney to repeat everything in the brief? Huh ...she has a pretty good approval rating so I am hopeful the decision will be favorable. If you are an attorney just be on your toes about how she characterizes the medical evidence. Will quiz your client about medications even though you have submitted med list she still expects the client to have them memorized even when they are a few pages long.

Keep in mind when I added this note she had a 45% approval rating?? Not a very nice judge. She is very argumentative with the attorney as soon as you go on the record. Hearings can last about 2 hours she requires the client to bring all medications they are on as well. She will quiz the client about ALL medications and exactly which medication they take for what impairment. In addition she will need a simple outline of each treating doctor the client is seeing and for what condition they are seeing that particular doctor for (again it just doesn't seem she reads the records or the brief before hearing)but again she will argue why a family doctor is treating for specific impairments. She is very argumentative and tends to give medical opinion about your case while citing incorrectly or mischaracetrizing the evidence. It is apparent she does NOT read briefs and for that fact she reads very little of the medical records that is how she mischaraterizes so much of the medical records. Example: in my case she argued (yep) that my client only had one back impairment when several were listed and really counselor it's all the same (when no they are not) she will argue and try to get you to stipulate to her reasoning. VE: she uses a VE but wants to skip over listing out the jobs the national numbers and the local numbers. She will again ask the attorney to stipulate that there are jobs without listing them out. No doubt her hearings are ripe for appeal but need to take very detailed notes stay on your toes and if you do go to AC with an appeal GET THE TRANSCRIPT OF THE HEARING.

That 3/8/13 comment and a couple others badly mischaracterize Judge Michaelson. I've had enough hearings with her to know that she knows the law, has read your brief, and has a refreshingly practical manner in which she conducts the hearing. And she does talk to the claimant in a way they can understand. Just putting in my 2 cents.

I had a hearing in front of this judge, very nice judge. She listened to my testimony and appears to be very knowledgeable of the case. Besides she took the time to offer suggestions to better improved my health. Very good judge. Keep up a good work!

Judge Miller is very thorough. He is very kind and I felt he really listened to me. He didn't make me feel bad or embarrassed about my illness.

this piece of garbage shouldn't even be a judge. he doesn't listen to anything you tell him. he makes rude comments and thinks even with witnesses that people are plain liars. he should be disbarred. he doesn't even deserve one star in the rating. if you get stuck with him as your judge i feel sorry for you.

SSDI claims are being decided and paid at an alarmingly slow rate. I've waited 4.5 years for a decision to be rendered. Judge Miller ruled in my favor and was very fair regarding the onset date. My only complaint is that it took 7 months AFTER the hearing for him to make a decision. The upside, of course, is that I will receive a lot of back pay. But I've had an extremely hard time financially and had to face bankruptcy and foreclosure. I had to endure a great deal of stress, which terribly exaserbated my PTSD, causing me to be hospitalized 3 times over these past 4 years. Bottom line is Never Give Up. Wonderous things await you just around the corner.

I found Judge Barry Miller to be more kind than I thought he would be, from things I've heard. I've been on my pain meds for several years & they haven't caused me to nod off like I did at my hearing. I found the Dr. to be a **** as all he did was read my dx's, (he didn't explain what they were in layman's terms)! However the vocational lady, seemed to only find a few jobs, that is until my lawyer asked if any of the jobs would need OK with

This "judge" is totally biased. My wife was denied her SSA even though 4 doctors, a psychologist and court appointed job assessor all agreed that she should have been approved for her SSA. That decision crushed her spirit. So here we are almost a year after his ** decision and now my wife is dead and I'm am filing chapter 7. Hope this ***** **** ** ****!!!

I had Judge Kevin Vodak for my disability hearing on October 7, 2015. He seems very nice. I do not know the outcome yet but, I am hoping for an approval ,of course. I will be happy to tell you a few things I saw in him as the hearing was in action. He seemed very well spoken. He seemed very in tune and interested in hearing what I had to say. He had a very nice composure and made me feel like a person not just a case. I wanted him to understand my pain but of course that is impossible to do. He did seem like he had empathy though and I really appreciated him taking the time to hear me and my case and not just dismiss me and make me feel like nothing. I already feel like nothing because I have lost so much of "me" in my new world of pain . No one has to remind me. Overall I thought it went well. He seemed like a very nice Judge.

I'd give him zero stars, but at least he let me speak. I'll put it this way, Judge Vodak already has his mind made up before you enter the room. You can be sincere, truthful and completely open and it will not sway him at all. I have had the same disease for ten years and have now been kicked off disability with no hope of being able to find much less hold one of the jobs recommended. Best of luck to you if you draw him for your hearing. You better be missing a leg to get any sympathy from this judge.

This judge and the system does not have a clue about the disabling effects of a mental illness and you will not be given any consideration, after you are no longer able to work because of mental health issues that are very serious. SSDi does not apply the information they get in credible way.
