That was so awesome! I went through hell but my attorney sucked. After I went to court and lost I went to another attorney. She looked over my file and gave me advice. Then told me to come back to her if I lost and she'd help with the appeal. I told myself she was a nice lady BUT I didn't plan on needing her. I filed my new case and it did get closed but I didn't lose. I filed again and here I am.
I had records only going back to 2012. But I had a new dx (schizoaffective disorder) added last yr and the attorney advised to focus on that because that's when I really started having really bad systems.
