New York Unemployment Hearing Scheduled - Need Advice for Fighting False Employer Claims

Make sure you have EVERYTHING documented. Emails, texts, performance reviews, anything that shows your side of the story. The judge will want facts not emotions. I won my hearing because I had proof my boss was lying about attendance issues.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone at unemployment using claimyr.com. It costs $20 but they dial and wait on hold, then connect you when someone picks up. Here's a video explaining how it works: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Your in the same boat I was last month! Record the hearing if they let you. Write down talking points beforehand so you dont forget anything important when ur nervous

LISTEN UP - Former UI hearing officer here! Here's what you need to do to prepare for your hearing: First, organize all your evidence chronologically. Include any written warnings, emails, or documentation about your separation. If you have witness statements, get them notarized. Second, prepare a timeline of events. Judges appreciate clear, concise presentations. Third, practice your testimony. Focus on facts, not emotions. If you need legal help, contact Legal Aid - they often help with UI cases for free. Fourth, if you need to reach UI before the hearing, try claimyr.com. They can get you through to an agent to discuss your case. Fifth, during the hearing, stay professional. Answer questions directly. Don't interrupt. I've seen hundreds of cases. The ones who win come prepared with evidence and keep their cool. 🧑‍⚖️
