Mimzee,
If you want you can have your kids in the room with you at the hearing. My husband came in with me. There's the judge,doctor,vocation expert, you and your attorney. My court hearing took 18 months from the time we filed for the appeal. Then the joke was it took five minutes in the room and I was done. The judge may ask you questions but they are usally easy ones. Good luck!!!!!!!!! Oh, I did win my SSDI.

yeah my attorney says it can be a yr to eighteen months,i pray it goes well,i think i will have them there in case,just to be safe,congratulations on your outcome,so many of us are just thrown out there to fend and the system just seems to not care,i pray for better days,thanks alot,mimzee:confused:

I don't know about the advice saying you can have people in the hearing with you.I know .for my case in miami fl.no one but me an atty.were allowed,there was a alg,vocational expert andthe court reporter,no dr.

At my hearing no one was allowed with me. There was me, my attorney, the judge and a vocational expert. I don't think children will be allowed at the hearing. I'm in KY.
