Adminstrative Law Judges are paid to judge, not rubber stamp an application. In this forum, many people refer to their ALJ as a good one (approves everyone) or a bad one (denies everyone). There are also the complaints about how only the truly disabled should be approved but how can that be done without a standard and someone with the authority to apply the standard, to judge. Any time someone is given the authority to make a judgement, to make a decision, they will use the evidence available and choose one side or the other. You may disagree with the conclusion, but how is that a bias that means a judge is not doing his job?

Probably shouldn't provide your 'overwhelming' evidence here, but other than disagreeing with your lawyer's argument and drawing a different conclusion about whether or not you are disabled, what kind of bias is the judge applying? Were you denied because of your skin color, your gender, your religious affiliations? Or did the ALJ just disagree with you and conclude that the medical evidence did not substantiate your statements?

Most of us would actually be biased in our own favor because we think we are right. Someone having a different opinion than you is not necessarily a bias. So if an ALJ approved you, that would prove he/she was not biased because that is the only right conclusion?
