Legal Question in Appeals and Writs in California

Testimony given in hearing

I applied for unemplyment and was denied.I was then granted a hearing. But was still denied benifits. I appealed the decision ( after the hearing I immediatly went home and wrote down what was said and when in the hearing.) Because according to what was stated in the hearing by my former employers I was wrongfully terminated. When I filed my appeal I stated it in it and requested a tape of the hearing.When I recieved a copy of the tape. It had been edited and altered. To counter things I stated in my written appeal. The information in it was shown or my employers were allowed to see it and change their testamony on the tape.Cleverly done, but not perfect. I had the tape checked in a recording studio and it had been altered in 4 or 5 places. And the final statements By my former employers recorded on a different day. Forensic authentis cost start at 2,500.00 which I can't afford. I informed the State Board of my opinion and what I know to be true.What specific laws were violated. And what should I do next. Pending their decision of my appeal. Should I seek legal counsel now or wait. What should I do.

Re: Testimony given in hearing

You should immediately retain an attorney. Don't do anything else on your own.
