Nebraska's 100 attorneys and agents work out to 8.30 per 10,000 veterans, ranking 3 of 52 states and territories.
Of Nebraska's 93 counties, 7 have an accredited attorney or claims agent based there (7.5 percent). County locations could not be matched for 5 people on the roster.
The largest groups in Nebraska are in Lincoln (59), Omaha (30), Kearney (4), Papillion (2), and Blair (1).
Nebraska added 11 newly accredited attorneys and agents in the last 12 months. Median time accredited in Nebraska: 1.6 years. Accreditation dates were unavailable or invalid for 1 person; those records are left out of these time calculations.

Nebraska's VA regional office is in Lincoln.
Attorneys and claims agents per 10,000 veterans: Nebraska 8.30; Colorado 2.23; Iowa 1.27; Kansas 3.70; Missouri 2.99; South Dakota 1.09; Wyoming 1.98. Based on each representative's roster state, not the states where they accept clients.
About 120,000 veterans live in Nebraska, using VA's rounded population projection.
At least 49,938 veterans in Nebraska received VA disability compensation at the end of fiscal year 2025. VA does not publish very small county counts, so the true number is a little higher.
That works out to about one accredited attorney or claims agent for every 500 people in Nebraska receiving compensation, using the reported minimum.
Workload report dated 2026-09-19.
Claims with a Nebraska address: 4,520 claims pending, 9.9 percent pending more than 125 days.

Lincoln regional office: 2,192 claims pending, 10.1 percent pending more than 125 days, averaging 58.9 days pending.
VA moves claims between offices, so an office's queue can include claims from other states.
Board hearings are mostly virtual, so an attorney does not need to be local.
