Welcome to Season 1, Episode 22 of Winning Isn't Easy: Navigating Your Social Security Disability Claim. In this episode, we'll dive into the complicated topic of "Questions About Social Security Judges."
If you’ve ever waited months - or even years - for a Social Security Disability decision and wondered, "Who are these judges deciding my future?" - this episode of Winning Isn’t Easy is for you. Join host Nancy L. Cavey as she pulls back the curtain on the Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) who decide Social Security claims. From how they’re trained to what happens when things go wrong, Nancy tackles the questions claimants ask most. She shares the four key issues she wishes judges would address - straight from what she would’ve told them at their recent conference in Atlanta. She also explains what to do if you feel you were treated unfairly in your hearing, and breaks down your options if you believe the judge simply got it wrong. Whether you're preparing for a hearing, waiting on a decision, or navigating an appeal, understanding the role of the judge - and how to challenge mistakes - can make all the difference. Let’s get into it.
In this episode, we'll cover the following topics:
1 - The Four Things That Nancy Cavey Would Have Asked Social Security Judges to Address and Improve When the Social Security Judges Met in Atlanta
2 - Can I File an Unfair Treatment Complaint Against the Social Security Judge Who Heard My Case and Ruled Against Me?
3 - What Can I Do if I Believe the Judge’s Ruling Was Wrong?
Whether you're a claimant, or simply seeking valuable insights into the disability claims landscape, this episode provides essential guidance to help you succeed in your journey. Don't miss it.
