The Honorable Vickie Evans will be joining the Portland, Maine ODAR as a new administrative law judge. Prior to becoming a judge, Ms. Evans was a Senior Attorney Advisor at the Delaware hearing office. Prior to that, she represented claimants before the Social Security Administration in the Atlanta area for about 7 years. We welcome Judge Evans to Maine.

Judge Evans is expected to begin conducting hearings this Fall. She will replace Judge Kim Griswold, who will be transferring to the Social Security hearing office in Hartford, Connecticut. We wish Judge Griswold well.
