Heaven help any poor soul that gets this judge. He is biased and wouldn’t even make eye contact or listen to my testimony. He ignored the recommendations of the vocational expert. He ignored doctor’s reports and fabricated things about me. For example I live with other people and he claimed I lived alone. Any one of my witnesses and therapists weren’t credible. I could go on and on but I’ve wasted enough time. If you ever get this judge do whatever it takes to get assigned a different one.

He didn't even have the right facts about the case. Was completely wrong with some of his information and information contradicted several times. He didn't take the time to make sure his information was accurate. Need to find a way to report him to some board or something for not doing his job.

Very tough but also found him to be fair. Very straight forward and expects straight answers. I hope my case comes out positive since there was no work that I could do.

I feel sorry for anyone that has this judge. I received my denial letter after my hearing. He flat out lied in the report to justify his decision. He reported that my daughter(actually niece) no longer has her disability which she does. He also made reference to getting a report from her speech teacher. She has never and still to this day has never had a speech teacher. He also made reference to her being in preschool when she was 7 years old as well as a kindergarten pretest which he did not have because my daughter did not live with me until her second year of kindergarten was half over and she lived in a different state. Will be seeking professional counsel regarding this case.

This man was so gentle and kind during the hearing. Very accomodating, and seemed to be a person who listened, and seemed careful to get the testimony accurate. He gets one star for his kindness during the hearing. I received my hearing determination today. Everything I told him I can't do anymore, due to cataplexy (seizure like episodes) he says that I said that I can do these things. This is completely opposite my testimony. Not accurate at all. He even states I'm capable of going to the store on my own and spending time with family. When I clearly told him I can't drive more than about 30 minutes with Narcolepsy and only drive when I'm for fact certain I won't be a danger to anyone. This judge wrote my determination based on, and in his writing, the complete opposite of what was testified. This man obviously has no care for accuracy, or to award benefits to those who really need them. Just another example of our government being complete crooks, and leaving deserving proven disabled folks out to dry. I won a previous hearing in Dallas Tx.a few years prior, but worked as long as I physically could until my condition has worsened immensely. This is a total insult to me, an insult to my honesty, and integrity, and all the years of forcing myself to work because I never wanted to be a man who took handouts. But I expected my paid in benefits to be available in my time of need. The USA just said F-U Tim. Suffer peasant. I've lost every bit of faith in the US Government. We'll see how long it takes for my conditions to get me to mental illness. Then we'll see if I just happen to do anything Rash,or resort to 30 minutes to an hour of violence before I need a nap. Then wake up after an hour or so for another 30 min to an hour madness spree, since I've been fighting this corrupt system for 6 long years now. The Social Security system does not work. It leaves truely disabled people without benefits, yet complete faker , scammers get benefits without hassle at all. A disgrace.

This man makes you feel so relaxed and that he really cares and then he turns around and takes everything you say out of context. My fiancé can't even lift a gallon of milk because his shoulders are so bad after two failed replacements but because he can water a garden and do a few light house chores he said he can work eight hours a day. Now after eight years of SSD he has to find a job he can do. Financially ruined us with one swipe of a pen. Look out if you get him.

Hello you had a hearing with me and my lawyer on April 1 2015, for SSI. I was barely paying attention to your words during the hearing, due to the amount of pain from sitting there. Good thing I recorded it, and after a few dozen time's listening to over and over, and the skill sets I have learned and picked up over the years. Do help in certain times of need, now to hold something against your decision for approval that isn't on the actual record of mine. Is against PA law, I have another lawyer involved to file charges against you for this. Yes I have VERBAL PROOF of this as your reason, and will be also holding a press conference to allow the people to know how crooked you truly are. I don't like being mean/cruel but when denied something I should have gotten I will and always have fought back the legal way. I will and always do win. If I could rate negative stars on your site it would be in the thousands. Have a blessed day, and see you in court soon.

This judge is a total fraud!!! His own vocational expert said I couldn't obtain gainful employment with my conditions of severe Narcolepsy and Cataplexy. The medical expert said the same thing, that I could NOT obtain gainful employment with my condition. If you watch the hearing on video then read the determination, it's obvious this guy is either a liar or a fraud. Says I can bag groceries even though I collapse many times daily smashing my face in to the ground. I hope it's this ******** groceries I have to bag when I collapse. I'll put his broken eggs and other groceries right back in his plastic sack and say. Oh that's just too bad. You're groceries are smashed. ******* !!!!! I hope his whole family becomes disabled so he can get ****** around for 10 years in this ** system of fraud.

This judge is a pathological liar. Rude during the questioning. He is a rude man. Not friendly at all. He is obnoxious. He should not be judging anyone because he judges unfairly. He should be reported for his nastiness to the claimant. I've seen other people's comments and I wonder why something isn't done about him. Why wouldn't anyone do something after all the complaints. I had him for a judge and he's basically an incompetent judge.

I can't stand this judge. He pretends to be nice but he is not. He was rude to me during the hearing. He made derogatory statements in his decision letter that were false statements. He ignored my testimony and my medical evidence and still denied me. He gave no reason for his denial in the letter. That letter made no sense and neither did the denial he had no reason to deny me. He just did it to be obstinate because he is basically incompetent as he said I could do medium level work. I have an arthritis spine I can't stand too long and I have depression. I can't do medium level work. He is very stupid for denying me. I feel sympathy for anyone to go to this judge. He gets no stars.

I dislike this judge . He is a liar. He deliberately ignored my three years of medical history. He also made very derogatory statement about me which were false and he was rude to me during the questioning. He did absolutely nothing but say derogatory things and he did not do his job. Thank you judge cusaik now I'll be homeless and on the street. T You should be indicted and put in prison.

I don't like this judge. He interjected things in that denial letter that I never said. He ignored my testimony and sided with the vocational expert. He also falsley stated that I was off my medication which is a flat out lie. I very been on sertraline have been taking it since I was first diagnosed. I sure would like to know where he got his information from . He fabricated a lot of things that were not true in that denial letter. He needs to be held accountable for that. I feel sorry for anyone who gets him for a judge. He better get his facts straight. No stars for this so called judge.

I can't believe he denied me. Very unfair. He has 1 of the highest denial rates in the country. That's probably why he gets paid so much. I would love to say what the really think but I won't.

I was before thisALJ in a representative capacity. She is very easy to speak with and had a very good disposition. She was understanding of the medical conditions before her and accommodated the client during the hearing. She re stated her question when the claimant did not understand and allowed the claimant to feel calm which allowed to both the need for the claimant's parent to testify and to the claimants additional records which needed to be submitted. A supplemental hearing might be needed and this ALJ was very clear she would allow the supplemental if needed.

This person does not look at all of the med records she will throw them out and she will use some one's who is not you. If you read and understand English you will not get the ssd you payed into . So if you are here from anther country this person is bias . And don'tlike you if you are white

Terrible judge who is no different than the rest of the workers in SSA, and finds ways to deny even if it means lying and twisting words.

We met with Judge Grovich in Erie Pa this past monday for our daughter who has multiple challenges. Long story short and regardless of what the outcome is which we do not know, that is the reason im posting this now. Judge Grovich was very kind and listened. Trying to help your children in life who have disabilities and going through the process for SSI is so difficult and challenging and beyond frustrating. But the kindness and respect he showed along with listening was something i will not forget . The system is horrible but when you go thru the process and get to a hearing having a Judge like this should be recognized. Again we have no determination but the demeanor and overall time that was taken to talk with my daughter and myself made the lengthy emotional process something that i feel we can finally get a honest answer to.

A lot have mentioned to me and my husband bad things about Judge David Hatfield and when we went to the appeal hearing i felt he was a very patient, understanding person. The experience was very nerve wrecking being that all the comments we where told where very negative, but i felt he wasn't a bad judge at all!!!!

The first above review uses the same exact language as the fourth review, and the second review is from his brother, smell fishy? It should this clown created the "FIT" which is the template all ALJ's use to deny qualified applicants with illegal boilerplate language. This man surely is responsible for many of the average of 18,000 people who die each year waiting to qualify, and he knows it, and thinks were all just dumb and will never catch on. These are his thoughts given before the Ways and Means Committee. 1. (Your illness) "There are many impairments that, with medical treatment, should not only improve but disappear". 2. (Actually doing his job) "This high burden of making a legally sufficient denial decision has, in my opinion, adversely affected timeliness and decision making". 3. (Your right to a federal hearing) "-this rigorous court oversight has unduly influenced policy and complicated decision making". This guy really see's Claimants as numbers, things, and there are just too many of us, and he has come up with a solution with finality. He makes over $250.000, plus benefits a year, all of which we pay for, and we don't even get the decency of a train ride, and gas chamber. Were just left by the side of the road, that we as well payed for, to die miserably. Just read the above comments again and know that obviously he and his brother are behind them. The 14th amendment is nothing more than a piece of toilet paper to him, and we are all nothing more than widgets.

I don't even have the words that would adaquately describe the gratitude I have for the unbelievable compassion this man showed me at my ssi hearing. I've been disabled with chronic phlebitys and and many other debilitating ailments but my documentation was scattered at best. This judge took a lot of time weeding through my years of hospitalization and In his final decision some how managed to see through through all the red tape and do the humane thing. He knew money wouldn't solve my problems but also knew it would provide me with the respect I needed to die with dignity. This man changed my life, what little l May have. He also may be responsible for actually saving my life because I wanted to die prior to my hearing. He gave me hope which is just what I needed my only regret is that I can't repay his kindness may God in heaven please bless this man. Love and best wishes.

I note that Judge Marks numbers for 2010 were only for 10 months as he retired at the end of October. On that basis his numbers don't look too good for claimants but if you look at his numbers in Cleveland where was the HOCALJ, his favorables were significantly higher.

I was not happy with my client's outcome but he provided an interesting hearing, lots of questions on esoteric matters. I thought a real jurist but sometimes a little odd. Late note:I just got a response to my post hearing memo and he reversed himself. He communicated with me by email and said he was impressed with my memo and reconsidered, giving the benefit of the doubt to the claimant. Go figure.

I have read his book and appeared before him many times. There are some postings that say his book and,in fact,Judge Marks is anti-lawyer. I am from Youngstown where he lives and I can tell you that nothing is further from the truth. He is a true lawyer's Judge. Your clients might be underserving now and then but you are going to get a fair shake and then some from him.

Respectful to client and representative. Does not ask for opening or closing, but will allow for it. Did not allow the record to remain open because the 5 day letter was submitted a day late. Make sure to submit it in time, as it should be.

Judge Papazekos is a fair and even handed judge. she listened and seemed to care about my case. She went out of her way to explain things to me and did more than my own Attu to help me in the hearing.

cherry picked my case with things that were discriminatory torwords my character. Was told by lawyer after court day that I won my case, then 4 months later she signs paper saying I'm faking When sworn doctors she had in court said I'm disabled.

This judge was rude, and even insulting. dragged me through appeals for 5 years even after her first denial of me was remanded. Her vocational expert even told myattorney after a hearing that my case was in the bag, yet she still denied me. Gave no credibility to my dr's, Psychiatrist, numerous meds i'm on, or ER visits. I had to refile because of her. If I would get her again, I don't know what i'd do. This woman should be A prison guard, not someone supposed to judge fairly on poor health.

I am an Iraq combat veteran with a purple heart and a 100% disability rating from the VA for severe PTSD. I had several hearings before joanna papazekos and from the very first one, it was clear that she neither understood PTSD nor apparently believes it is a disability. When I returned from Iraq in 2006, I was diagnosed with severe PTSD by a private practice Psychiatrist in Pittsburgh and then began long-term treatment with a licensed Psychologist. When I had my first meeting with judge papazekos, I had been in continuous therapy for 11 years. At the hearing I presented written summaries from my original Psychiatrist, the Psychologist I saw for 11 years and a third Psychologist who I recently started seeing. In addition, I presented the Veterans Administration decision indicating I was 100% disabled from PTSD. I also presented evidence of being unable to work due to severe mood swings and evidence where I had tried to work part-time at a local Home Depot but had to quit due to triggered reactions I had at work. I had overwhelming evidence showing the severity of my disability problems, however, joanna papazekos did not take any of that evidence seriously. She denied my application for disability status. I can only conclude that she either 1. knows nothing about PTSD and its effects; or 2. harbors a resentment and/or feeling of discrimination against Veterans.

I can only conclude that she either 1. knows nothing about PTSD and its effects; or 2. harbors a resentment and/or feeling of discrimination against Veterans.
I am an Iraq combat veteran with a purple heart and a 100% disability rating from the VA for severe PTSD. from the very first hearing, it was clear that she neither understood PTSD nor apparently believes it is a disability. I was diagnosed with severe PTSD by a Psychiatrist in Pittsburgh and then began long-term treatment with a licensed Psychologist. I have been in continuous therapy for 11 years. At the hearing I presented evidence from my original Psychiatrist and two other Psychologists.

Judge Pileggi might appear slightly intimidating at first, but in actuality, he is a nice man and is clearly knowledgeable about the requirements and standards used. He develops a pretty good conversational style with Claimants and is very good to new representatives. He knows exactly what questions he wants to ask, and his hearings finish pretty early as a result.

I felt like someone is talking and saying things that they should not say to j.porter. People or him dont know how hard it is to take care of disable and blind low vision children. Until they live and take care of them 365 days of the year. Then help them to become a better, person. They dont really know whats it like 24hrs having to deal with children like that. No matter what I will still take care of my children the right and proper way. My cases for my daughter was denied and she does have many disability problems. I applied more then three times. I dont have time for no judgments crap or games when it comes to my children. No parent should lie about the condition of their children and the way they are just to get money. If they do lie then something is wrong with them. I will appeal my case for the first time instead of walking away. Thanks for taking the time to read my letter. This is something you should know.

This man should not have a job that judges people illness, apparently knows nothing of mental illness. Defies what Doctors say.

The judge did not take into account what I had to say. He wad very rude. If I could give him a million 0 stars I would. He should be banned from being a judge altogether. Judges who preside overy mental health cases need to have a better understanding of what mental illnesses are and how it affects people in their day to day life instead of the bullshit that they say. Mental Illness not only affects that person but the people living with them spouse. Not everyone with mental illness is married to someone who has a mental illness and my spouse is one of them. He does not have any mental illness and is of a very high IQ. Me having a mental illness is at times hard for him to deal with but at the end of the day he is still there and not going anywhere. Just like for example someone with cancer that is something that is a cronic medical condition... mental health is the same way. Mental illness is where you mentally have a disease that you have good days and bad days and most of the time the bad days that you have inside of your head affects you negatively constantly 24/7. You have your ups and downs... but mostly downs. Mental illness is a disease that can not be seen that is why people who don't have a mental illness judges people that do have a mental illness just like judge John Porter. I am using his name because I feel that he needs to be fired. I did everything that social security asked of me to and made sure he had everything he needed. I called all the time to make sure they had everything they needed. I also had doctors that said that I needed to stay on disability. I had mental health doctors who said that and he said what they said does not carry any weight... but instead get a job as a housekeeper which there are 20,000 jobs nationwide... or get a job as some kind of inspector where there are only 3,500 jobs nationwide. Get the **** out of here. If you are about to have this judge preside over your disability case I would automatically expect to be denied way before your court hearing.

I was extremely nervous as i am very naive to this type of arena and the topics at hand. He was very professional and highly talented at extracting information while keeping me as calm and as ease as he could. I was very impressed.

I think Judge Stanley was very unfair in his decision. I had the pleasure of having him twice. Lucky me. I cannot understand how he ruled, due to the fact that the VE said there was no job out there for me. I thought their opinion counted. He asked the VE so many questions and got all the same answer, no there is no work for her. And another thing I think he was not fair and not very personalable, he had me crying by the end of the hearing. So upset. And the strange thing to me was after the second hearing I had the denial letter within 4 days!! Ever hear of that. That in itself tells me he had it in for me from the start.

Judge Stanley actually listens to your testimony and his impartiality comes through. When my attorney failed to cross examine the vocational expert who testified in support of denying benefits, Judge Stanley asked the questions that my attorney should have asked. He could have just accepted the testimony at face value, but he probed in order to understand whether their testimony was truly relevant to my case. I was told by my attorney to expect it to take two to three months to receive his ruling. Three days later, his order was in my mailbox approving my benefits. He appeared to me to be a very fair and compassionate individual. I'm not saying this simply because he ruled in my favor. When I left his courtroom, before I knew what his decision was I told my attorney that regardless of the outcome, I at least felt like I was heard and that my hearing was conducted in a very fair manner so I could accept his decision workout feeling as if he was just going through the motions before rubberstamping another denial.

Judge Tenebaum was very professional and very understanding when I needed to move around during my hearing. After explaining the hearing process she opening by asking me what the issues were with my hands and how they affected me (I have multiple issues). She asked many questions so that she could obtain the necessary information. The worst part of my hearing was me. My anxiety kicked in and I my thoughts scrambled. I haven't received my decision yet, but I do rate her highly from the hearing perspective.
