Omaha, Nebraska, Social Security Disability Attorney
Social Security Disability Benefits Initial Application
Many injured and disabled individuals seek legal help at the onset of a Social Security Disability benefits claim. Legal assistance at the beginning of the claims process can be invaluable. For example, a lawyer can:
- Ensure that your Social Security forms are properly completed
- Properly document your physical or mental health conditions to Social Security Administration criteria
- Accurately describe how your physical or mental health conditions prevent your gainful employment
- Obtain a medical report from your physician describing your conditions and how you are limited in your ability to work
Additionally, federal law dictates that attorneys receive legal fees only for a percentage of past-due benefits. Current federal regulations allow us to file SSDI initial applications, but not SSI initial applications.
If you have questions regarding your initial application for Social Security Disability benefits, contact us for answers and full legal representation. Attorney Tim Cuddigan has represented injured individuals for over 30 years and has worked exclusively to protect and pursue clients' disability rights since 1994.

At the law firm of Timothy J. Cuddigan, we focus our legal service offerings exclusively on disability law and are highly knowledgeable regarding all aspects and levels of the claims process.
We have successfully obtained benefits for thousands of clients suffering from a wide range of physical and mental conditions, including injuries suffered on and off the job, and depression, anxiety, chronic pain, cardiac disease, back problems, arthritis, lung disease, migraines, fibromyalgia and multiple sclerosis.
We are also experienced in handling over-age-50 claims, which carry a specific set of rules beneficial to the claimant. For instance, if you are over 50 years old, have not held sedentary work positions in the past, and are now medically limited to only sedentary work, you may be eligible for benefits based on special vocational rules. If you are over 55 years old and have not held light or sedentary work positions in the past you may also be eligible for benefits based on special vocational rules.
