Jim has been an advocate for the rights of both claimants and their representatives throughout his career. He does not want to see a deserving claimant denied the right to representation, which is why teaching, although a passion of his, is also crucial to protecting the rights of deserving people in need.
Your creativity can help you win more cases with low-paying judges; it can improve your cross- examination of the VE and ME; it can help you make the difficult client a pleasure to your staff. Creativity can improve hearing prep and the questions you ask your client. Thinking creatively can increase physician and client referrals.
Your creativity, when used properly, can bring excitement back to your practice.
