100% favorable decisions is a great stat; the number of cases is so small that the stat is not that strong an indicator of anyone else's chances, but positive thinking is always a good idea.
i doubt that any law firm has that many cases that they have filed a brief for at the appeals council or federal court levels. Its only a very small number of cases that get to that level. So 2 for 2 is a very good record as far as i am concerned.
