Wonderful judge!!! Always super courteous to both CLTs and attorneys. He also handles Stockton hearings. He is very new to the SSA bench. Not at all jaded or cynical, like so many other SSA ALJs in CA who, in my opinion, have clearly lost their ability to be objective or fair and should have been forced to retire years ago.

Judge Beers scoffed, then scolded my lawyer during my hearing for reading from a law book to ensure that a technicality we wanted to point out was recognized. It made me feel like she had a personal vendetta against him prior to my case. I had a sick feeling in my gut after that & I knew I'd be denied. Just as I suspected- Denied! I'm literally unable to use my shoulders to move or raise my arms, my hands lock up into fists, & I can barely walk from the Lupus & Fibromyalgia that's wrecking my body. But now I have to find a way to work- SOMEWHERE. I don't know what I'm going to do. I'm terrified & want to kill myself sometimes because I see no real solutions for me. She has ruined my faith in the system.

It is so terrible when you truly really need help from disability and have to fight like hell to get it and then still get denied. Your health gets worse because you don't have health insurance, and depression starts in. Judge H Beers was nice to my face, but came back with a quick judgement. She was wrong on a few things when it came to information from my doctors and my MRI. Maybe she should look into things better than being so judgemental. This is one of the reasons why this world is falling apart. It's because where people should care, they don't. I can't even give her a rating because it would be a lie.

SHE IS POSSIBLY THE WORST JUDGE OUT THERE. SHE IS MORE CONCERNED WITH HER FAKE EYELASHES THAN THE CLAIMANTS.

This judge failed to review all the information for my mothers case and basically implied that my mother and her doctor were lying about all her ailments.. She has degentive bonesdisc disease and as a result she can not work.. He asked her how long she was able to sit for, my mother said "around 10 mins" his reasoning was since she can sit at the hearing for 40 mins that she can work.... Which is dumb because either way no one can get a job that allows them to support themselves by sitting for 40 mins at a desk.. He disregarded what the V.E and what her doctors said and believed the bull his doctor said.. The V.E told him that there was NO job she could get but he paid no attention to that FACT.. I strongly dislike this judge and hope he loses his job due to being disabled and gets denied disability.

This judge is awful. He didnt believe my client was legally blind as supported by his treating physician. He then hired an outside doctor who never examined the claimant to say hes not legally blind. Unbelievable avoid this judge.

I have been unable to work since 2014. My attorney advised me that I had about 30 min to formulate my thoughts, put into words a clear and concise answers that adequately reflected the pain, suffering, struggles and my over all inability to work…. It was a profoundly surreal to stand before the judge and try to focus on answering his questions. It got to me, I broke down crying about halfway through. I almost couldn’t stop. Judge Blume, paused and said "take your time", it's alright" He looked at me with genuine empathy, kindness and compassion. I found the judge to be very prepared, through and thoughtful. He asked pointed questions, asked for clarification if he did not understand my answer or when i rambled. I am relieved that it's finally over. Now the wait begins. I have no idea how he will rule. That said, my prayers and thoughts go out the judge, my attorney and everyone else that has to walk this road. Sincerely Jtr

Judge Blume is understanding,Theroux, showing genuine empathy towards clients presenting disability claims. My claim went before judge Blume in 2016, at the time I didn't have the information or the knowledge regarding important facts about my case. Judge Blume took the time to give me the words of wisdom in order to obtain the documents to appeal my case. Although it has taken me two years to get the paperwork together I'm looking forward to seeing Judge Blume on my appeal.

Judge Phillip E Callis was a understanding judge that gets down to the details of your disability. He gives you the opportunity to get your point across in explaining your reasons why you can't work. If you get the judge you are in the right enviroment of getting what you deserve.

Decent ALJ. He does all the questioning. He tends to ask many questions as well. Therefore, his hearings last between 45 minutes to 1 hour. He does a good job of reviewing the submitted medical records. As always, it is in your best interest to have solid treating doctors' opinions and objective testing.

Our experience has been consistent with the other comments here. He does a thorough job explaining to the claimant just what's going to happen in the hearing and why he's asking the questions he does. He's a very fair judge and knows what he's doing.

Hi recently had a hearing that was proceeded over by judge Hernandez. The hearing was October 22nd. and I was a nervous wreck to say the least. We were taken in about 20 minutes early as I'm assuming she was running ahead of schedule. I felt that she was a straight shooter and really wanted to get to root of what it is that has caused me to no longer be able to work. She did ask some questions that I wish I would have been able to go into a little deeper, but when your world has been turned upside down in a matter of a few years it's hard to get it all in with out rambling and my attorney made sure to roll right on to the next question. For me I guess it will come down to wether or not she values the opinion of my phycisian and realizes what a life altering experience this has been for me. She seemed to be genuine and fair, although very difficult to read. It's in god's hands now. I continue to pray that this emotional journey is finally over and that I will be able to focus on my health and my son. Now the waiting for that letter that I don't know if I have the strength to open.

Represented a client before this judge and received the most scathing denial. The judge acted like she was in dire need of meds herself she called my client a liar and called all her doctors liars. She cherry picked the stoppage of any prescriptions not that they were replaced by another. She just wrote the most scathing and blistering report. I find it horrible because the client is the most honest person I know and didn't deserve a disservice such as this.

Hon.E.Hernandez.

E. Hernandez omits power,without abusing it. "Her performance in official capacity, "Brings Honor to title Judge".

On 01/24/2020 for.

Although, I do not know the outcome of my hearing just yet, I must say this Judge made my hearing so easy, so stress free. Very pleasant, and I felt very fair. Sweet, seemed to care.

The 2nd best ALJ in Oakland. She has a relaxed and kind personality. She will listen to what your are saying. However, you still will need have favorable MD opinions that are supported by objective medical records/testing

A very fair and understanding ALJ who knows the law and ensures that the "right" things happen. That's very important because of the waiting time to get Social Security. It was a pleasure to go before her, regardless of her ruling.

1 of the top 2 judges in the Oakland ODAR. If you lose with her, then you have no case, essentially. She will ask reps to expand on any arguments they make with specific references to law, regs, rulings, or the evidence, before she considers them. Judge Hill-Maxion will give you a lot of leeway to develop cases post-hearing, to clarify negative issues, and if an ME says a listing, she'll end the hearing very quick to grant.

In 2007, my ME did not have time to read my medical records, did not believe a word I had said, and stopped my W.Comp from that day forward. In 2010, one day prior to my hearing with Judge Sanya Hill Maxion, I knelt for the 2nd time ever in my life at home, and prayed to God and Jesus above, to please let my SSDI judge be a human being, be kind, caring, and loving, and be someone who would give me the judgment that HE would give to me. Whatever it would be, I would accept it. I knew in my heart that HE knew that I was truly injured and could not continue to work. The moment I entered the hearing room and saw Judge Sanya Hill Maxion, I saw the love on her face. If God was a woman, she was Him. And my Allsup representative was my guardian angel. When I go home, I cried and cried with gratefulness. I used to know OF God, but now KNOW Him. He IS love. Thank you God, and thank you, Judge Sanya Hill Maxion, and my Allsup guardian angel!

A very nice, compassionate judge. Goes out of her way to make claimants and attorneys welcome and comfortable with the process. Very fair and thorough questioning. If the evidence is not there, you will probably not prevail, but I can tell by her demeanor that everyone who appears before her is treated with kindness and respect.

Racist, sexist judge that hates whites and males. She should be fired. During my hearing she gave me nothing but dirty looks and barely let me talk. She should be fired.

I think this judge is very inconsiderate person in making decisions he is not a good judge it took him 8 months to write up a decision he did not know my pain and what I go through everyday of my life I loved my job challenging but very rewarding I went back to work and tried I didn't give up but I couldn't do it anymore but he didn't see that as I cried and explain to him the pain that I'm in I'm a very honest person I have no reason to be dishonest I love my job and I rather be working than applying for Social Security disability but my disability prevents me from that . Thank you

This judge cherry-picked through evidence, seems to have made up his mind before I opened my mouth; or as my lawyer put it, "SOMEONE didn't have their coffee this morning..". My lawyer and my therapist were shocked when he issued his denial, as I even had an SSA contracted psych eval along with heaps of notes from multiple doctors and clinic detailing a marked prognosis. Appealing to him felt like pleading to a brick wall for mercy and understanding. It's all rigged, and now there's no way for me to pay back all the general assistance issued by the county. I'm a month away from homelessness and my storage unit is about to be auctioned off. If you're under 40, get used to the idea of working until you die.

One of the worst judges in the Oakland ODAR, which means he's still better than most judges nationwide. His personality is typically grumpy and he'll push new reps before him very hard. If he notices a mistake, he'll slam you for it. If he makes a mistake, he backs off very quickly with a little push. He will often treat claimants very skeptically and trip them up or be outright mean. That said, he's not a dumb judge -- more like an evil genius -- and can see merit in a case if there's treating support, good records, as well as credible explanations. After you've been before him a few times he apparently will start to warm up to you, but I haven't seen that yet.

Worse judge ever! He will not make eye contact with you because he does not care. He is a real threat to national security and should be remove a.s.a.p. He is putting disable US citizens on the street homeless.

Great judge. Fair, understanding, helpful, sympathetic. With regard to the negative posts here, a) I'm glad he saw thru you if you're a fraud, or B) if you are legit disabled, I wish you luck in your appeal.

This Judge certainly decides cases before the hearing. I don't think she cares about testimony. You need to write a very legally driven, persuasive brief pre-hearing. And, she wants all evidence submitted at least two weeks prior to the hearing.

Insults humilates and condisends...ex lawyer who-ra "lawyers only court room" is against the law..peoples right to not have a lawyer clearly vindicated my non legal representive in her statement who makes $170000.00 guess thats why shes over weight! How dare she call anyone obese! When she herself is extremely unhealthy and over weight! She is a SSI judge in 3 countys? Maybe that's why she doesn't know the files! Strikes odd the wealthy making judgement on the poor! Any child deserves help! I'm submitting fraud claim per her failure to fallow the law! Stating I was warned to have legal rep and denied help..which is unlawful per ssi regulations. Also the doctor who made statements representing ssi only reviewed cps file and copy pasted entire report as her dieing husband lay in the next room..is what the internet said about the 82 years old doctor they used as a witness...maybe that's Mrs Lisewskis Mother! Filing fraud charges now online!

Just had my hearing with her after waiting a long while. She's very professional, nice & respectful. Had my representative do a lot of the questioning. Always be honest! She's a good listener & has decided to keep my case open for another 2 weeks to get some more medical records submitted to her. She seems to be understanding & even wished me good luck! Hoping & praying for a favorable decision! Whether she approves me or not, thank you to her for being my judge & taking the time to hear my case about how my conditions have impacted my life & ability to work.

Unprofessional and rude. Wears crocs and tacky clothes to hearings. She hates the sight of any woman who looks better than her. She has the nerve to criticize people's weight when they are barely overweight. She could lose some weight herself. She really needs to go... She has an ugly personality but it's not surprising, she presents herself like a stereotypical pathetic looking government employee.

I disagree with the post above. I found Judge Loo to be polite and considerate. She was very patient and understanding. She gave me appropriate time to respond to each question and asked very straightforward questions. I regret not speaking when given the opportunity, I was advised by my attorney not to elaborate on any answers just yes or no. As far as my experience, I give Judge Loo a very positive review for making a stressful situation comfortable.

She's just not very respectful. There is a way to express your opinions and to disagree but to condescend and borderline embarrass someone is uncalled for. I don't think judges like this make the social security system better, they make it worse. This is supposed to be an non-adversarial process, a fact-finding process but when your goal is to create conflict and hostility and to shoot down claimants and young attorneys, it is really sad. I have no respect for a judge like this. None.

The statistics don't lie. He is by far the most fair and compassionate. His hearings are stress free. He will usually ask most of the questions. You still need to have good medical support. But he is more likely to overlook major deficiencies with your case compared to the other ALJs

This ALJ used to be a dealer -- for an amended onset you could likely get a win. Now she's becoming quite conservative, denying lots of cases and obfuscating her decisions, even for cases she would have granted a year ago!

I just posted 5 stars for Judge Parnow, let me add ,I had two hearings ( the second a supplemental) and I am waiting for her decision. And I still give her a good rating.. why..because she gave me a good caring vibe.. My only HOPE of change is a answer " if yes" to hear it in court.. then waiting for the letter of confirmation wont be so hard and stressful.. good luck all.

Why does the web sites show mixed comments? If a person doesn't click on site, a person can get the wrong impression of that judge.not right to mix a positive comment with a negative comment. Thats for all judges. Unfair and tricky.

She makes me wait five months until she sends me a rejection letter. I am outraged at how low life criminals with prison and drug records who fake schizophrenia to get a free check that goes to the dope man on the first of every month. Check out 17th Street and Imperial Avenue near St Vincent De Paul-Father Joe Villages. When honest people have paid into the system and honestly need help they are continuously denied. I often wonder about people in high positions.

I found her to be kind, respectful, thorough, and fair. She was genuinely interested in me and my daily struggles. She listened closely, asked clear questions and even kept me past the allotted time to hear my answers. I was very pleased with the process, with her and my outcome.

Although i was very unimpressed with the lack of care my physicians paid to my records i felt as if Judge Schum listened with courtesy and respect to what i had to say about my conditions. I am unsure how the verdict will turn but i can say while in his chambers his honor treated me with dignity and respect.

My wife and I have been waiting for a decision for five months, we just got the decision today and Judge Schum strikes again by denying a clearly disabled woman her rightful benefits. A 54% denial rate indicates bias and he needs to be removed from the bench.

Judge Schum was very kind in court, but his decision was entirely in favor of the vocational advocate who testified against me. This is a real ****** *****. Additionally, I was rated at low intelligence, but pleasant. That hurts.

Judge Schum was very condescending and rude to both myself and my attorney. He asked minimal questions after I waited 24 months for my hearing. Told me his decision wouldn’t come down for a couple of months and I received an unfavorable decision within days of my hearing. My doctors can’t believed it for as disabled as I am.

I found this judge to be completly unfair, rude, and should not be on the bench! In his report for the hearing he basicly called me a liar, which I am NOT!, He ignored every single piece of medical evidence, EXCEPT, the report written up by the doctor social security appointed, which also was a very biased report. Through-out the report he kept refering back to the report done by SSA doctor, as consistant with the other medical evidence, when this doctors report was completly opposite of what ALL THE OTHER EVIDENCE showed!..Completly unfair judge

I recently had Timothy G. Stueve as my ALJ. I was denied because he based his denial off of untrue facts. I had solid evidence that i'm disabled and he made several mistakes in his decision. He based his decision off of facts for example, "I able to make my own decisions", "I'm able to drive" and "I get along with my girlfriend and co-workers". First of all, a physically and mentally disabled person that suffers from serious disabilities are able to drive, make some decisions,and get along with a few people.And my question is, how does he know how I get along with my girlfriend? And get along with co-workers? The problem with this is I haven't worked since February 07. The occupational person that set in on the hearing could only come up with 3 jobs I could possibly do. And with common since my disabilities would keep from doing these jobs. The facts he used were false and now I have to appeal his decision and wait a year or better for the results. I haven't been able to work for 5 1/2 years now because of my injuries. And now because of Timothys denial, I have to wait another year? I have not had a income since June 09. Very sad we have ALJ's that make bad decisions.

To ad to my earlier comment, his decision was based also that I can prepare meals. FYI- I don't prepare meals. I only make a sandwich, or put something in the microwave. I don't know how to cook. A disabled person should'nt be able to make a sandwich? Get real!! These facts that were used are unexceptable. In my opinion, he was finding reasons that are unexceptable to deny my claim. Is this all you could come up with for reasons to deny someone? If so, it's really sad that we put our lifestyles in the hands of people like this. In my opinion, he should contact me, overturn his decision and make it right. Will he? A REAL ALJ would.

If anyone is reading this message board, my advice to you is to 'Hire and Attorney....DO NOT....go with a disability advocate! I've gone in front of the ALJ and was denied......yeah I had one of those disability advocates representing me. Then I got smart and hired an actual Kansas Attorney! I FINALLY won my disability case.

It appears this judge is hired by SSDI, trained by SSDI and given a set of strict rules to follow that was written by SSDI. If so he is not an independent judge and will work no longer than SSDI is satisfied by his performance. No wonder he denies more than half the cases put before him. In my own case he focused on one of my illness' and dismissed the other three problems. He dismissed supporting letters from people who knows me. He plainly shows his personal basis about people with disabilities. SSDI should be ordered by our governmental leaders to be fair and hire people who are un-basised.

facts are facts. approval rating of 24%. his personal attitude is controlling. not law-- just his political beliefs. another reason to do away with this section of the agency. draw one alj and you win draw another and you loses.

During my hearing, I was advised of three positions that i could possibly do. Two of them were denied. Then the third position as well was denied. When I received my denial letter. The third position that was denied was changed to something that was never even discussed at my hearing. Therefore, I believe my hearing should be re-evaluated by someone else. How can this judge just change whatever, to whatever he wants it to say?

Good luck if you get this judge. She thinks she’s also a medical doctor. My lawyer said this person shouldn’t be a judge.

Wish this judge had more reviews like the others. I guess her denial rates speaks for itself. I’m screwed

Actually, this was a positive experience. Judge Underhill took alot of time with my brother and I. We both felt that she thoroughly "got" his current level of functioning. She really listened and asked good questions. It has been years since he was really listened to like that. She was fair and respectful. Thus, I will respect her decision, whatever it is. This judge should be commended. I would have to say that she did a perfect job taking testimony on this case.

Even though I did not have a positive outcome (I'm now homeless) I felt Judge Welton was fair and impartial with regards to my social security disability claim. I will try to get my life back on track and move forward. If the Judge believes I can return to work, then that is what I intend to try.

Nice liberal ALJ. Not overly supportive but very fair. It is your job to provide him with medical support that makes his job easier. If you are under 50 and have very limited medical support, it's not gonna be your lucky day.

In my experience he is open, considerate, and fair minded. I too felt lucky to have him hear my case. He stayed on topic, and considered all of the evidence I presented. I felt he did exactly what an ODAR ALJ is supposed to do -- make sure that the rules and laws are properly applied.

I was shocked by the treatment I received from this judge. I am a case manager and was representing my client who is deaf and intellectually disabled. My client did not understand the importance of being present and did not show up. However my agency is his representative payee for his Social Security benefits and I had all documentation to prove it. Judge Williams stormed in the living room and yelled at me saying that my client better show up or the case will be dismissed. I approached him identifying myself and he scram that he did not want to hear me. I am familiar with many courts and have been representing my disabled clients for over 5 years and have never been treated with such disregard by anyone else. I was shocked and so was everyone else in the waiting room including the security guard. It is sad that someone with no social skills has such a high position in a federal agency such as the Social Security Administration. he dismissed the csse and my client will soon be homeless.

Open and considerate as said above. Moves kind of slowly. Sometimes I think he does not get more complicated issues- you have to explain them to him. But he is very compassionate.

My life has been mired in a constant battle with my local SS office in Walnut Creek CA! I don't want to say too much about this experience that was ongoing for over two years! I finally got my"day in court" in front of Judge Major Williams, which was just today, a burden has been lifted off my shoulders that has, albeit crippled me! I was rather wound-up and must have made an "Irish" spectacle of myself, but Judge Williams was patient, kind and tolerant of my eccentricities! I am beside myself with the appreciation I feel toward him and his very sweet court recorder. I'm feeling lucky and relieved that my waiting was not in vain and now I can concentrate on going forward with a positive outlook on my life!!

I had my case heard today before judge Zeidman, I felt that he was very fair and listened to my case. He seemed very compassionate and treated me with respect. He also thanked me for my military service to the country in which I really appreciated. I don't know what decision he will make, but whatever that decision is, I will accept and know that this judge was completely fair.

His history at the Office of Civil Rights is that he he is not fair to African-Americans. He may seem fair on the bench but that was not the way he ruled. He was quoted in a book saying that Jews are the only real victims in education discrimination in California.
