Very Satisfied!

Tim did a great job explaining the Social Security - Disability process to us, and the rest of the staff was very helpful to process the claim, and keeping me informed through the end.

Attorney Review

CUDDIGAN Sean took the time to listen to my situation thoroughly before being completely candid regarding the long and complicated road ahead of me when I filed for disability. I felt prepared and informed every step of the way and his staff was only a phone call away with prompt, courteous answe...rs to all of my questions. At my trial, Tim exhibited the preparedness, confidence and professionalism that only an experienced attorney can provide which resulted in winning my case. He called me personally to inform me of the outcome and patiently explained what I could expect going forward. I highly recommend Cuddigan Law and I am grateful for their dedication to my case.

Thank you to Cuddigan Law

Glad I did not have to go through the SS disability maze process on my own. Mr. Cuddigan and staff are knowledgeable. The recommendations he made throughout the process were spot on. I was never surprised at anything he sent me in writing because he or his staff would contact me to talk about it ...first, ask if I had questions, then tell me they would follow up with a letter. We went before a judge and won.

Disability Appeal Succesd

Time Cuddigan met with me one time to assist in completing my appeal. He was thorough in explaining the process of appeal and the expected time frame. My appeal was successful. Because I was not awarded any back benefits, Tim did not receive any compensation. Tim remained gracious and I never recei...ved a bill. I would recommend him to anyone without reservation.

Denied

After my son was denied disability for a seizure disorder, we contacted Cuddigan Law firm from a referral. The office would not make an appointment for a face to face consultation but instead had my son send his paperwork in the mail. After supposedly reviewing paperwork they sent it back in the mail... with a short note saying they could not represent him. No reason as to why or what the problem is, just can't represent him and feel free to get a second opinion.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
