Preparing for your SSI Hearing.
Administrative Law Judges are very busy, so it's best to have your presentation prepared well beforehand.
1. understand the main issue in your case – reduce it to one or two sentences.
2. learn about the judge and how he conducts hearings. Most want to do the right thing but they have very different styles.
3. Think about capacity for specific activities.
4. Think about pain – use a 1 to 10 scale (if your lawyer believes judge will be responsive).
5. Recognize that in most cases, the issue will boil down to whether you are reliable.
Your Attorney can help you prepare for these vital steps - a small bit of homework can act to your advanatage.
