Social Security Disability Claim....Great Success

I would recommend Cuddigan Law to anybody seeking Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). I suffered a broken back in a motorcycle accident when I was 62 years old that left me with a neurogenic bladder and bowel. After almost 3 years of physical therapy and rehab, there was no improvement in ...the symptoms of my injury. I was still unable to return to full-time work in any capacity and sought out Cuddigan Law to help me file for SSDI. My team, led by attorney Kimberly Schram and supported by legal assistants Ariana Parker and Audrey Besse, was superb. They were experienced and had in-depth knowledge of all the Social Security Administration’s (SSA’s) requirements from initial application through the multi-layered appeal journey. They had processes to lead me through this maze of government requirements to best shape and present my case for a successful determination. The impact of my injury on my ability to return to the full-time work force was not as evident as most injuries or sicknesses. The key to my successful determination was Ms. Schram’s knowledge of the SSA regulations and her ability to map my health issues to the specific elements of those regulations to clearly show I did not meet their own requirements to obtain full-time work. She articulately and aggressively presented these factors to a judge in my hearing that resulted in a Fully Favorable determination. I am grateful to Cuddigan Law and am confident I would not have obtained a favorable determination if not for their help.

Mr.

I had a sort of running battle with the VA of claims, denials, and appeals, since the 70's. One day I happened to see the Cuddigan Law website for help to Vets with VA claims. I liked the sound of what was on their site and decided that I would "give it one more shot," "before my checkout time." I c...alled and talked to Sean, Who said that he thought that I had a really good case. I asked him to take my case, which he did. Sean and his team explained all of the in and outs of VA law to me and went to work for me. They kept me updated on our progress, and in what seemed short time when dealing with the VA, they informed me that I was approved. My wife and I were extremely happy that Sean and his team got me approved, since I cannot work any more. My Great Grand Nephew was a marine that got wounded in Afghanistan And I advised him to contact Sean to get help with the VA. I would recommend any vet that needs help with the VA, to contact Sean and the cuddigan Law Group.

Veteran

To all the veterans trying to file a claim with the VA.,and or have been jammed in the process in the gigantic VA bureaucracy: do not give up, Never give up!, but honestly and unfortunately the VA makes so hard for us to get the VA benefits we deserve, so do not be alone on this and get the help of ...a professional Board Certify Attorney like Sean Cuddigan and his team of professional staff to assist you. They have really helped me stay the course, and most importantly, I have finally seen my appeals, claims, and ratings move along the system in prompt and positive way. I was bumped from 20% to 90% in a matter of months and its not over yet, our goal is 100%. Sean my family and I are very grateful with you and your staff.

Fantastic Attorney

I went to Sean in April 2018 and filed a disability case. Sean and his office kept me up to date on the process has it was occurring. 5 months later I was notified that SSA Disability determined that my case was approved. If not for the hard work of Sean and this office and their timely manner worki...ng with Disability, I may have not gotten the excellent outcome. I would highly recommend this firm for any SSA or VA disability cases Roxanna
