Claims Against the United States under the Federal Tort Claims Act and Military Claims Act

We have successfully represented many clients in cases involving birth trauma, cerebral palsy, brain damage, wrongful death, cancer misdiagnosis, surgical mistakes, contaminated blood products, serious automobile accidents, and nerve injuries.

You may have the right to file a claim against the United States if you have been injured in a military or Veterans Hospital, in an accident with a government vehicle, or otherwise injured by a government employee. Claims against the government involve a complex area of law. Having an attorney who has experience dealing with such claims may make a difference in the outcome. For instance, many believe that active-duty soldiers cannot bring a claim if their child or spouse is injured by negligence at a government hospital. That is not correct. For some basic information about claims against the government, please click on Know Your Rights.

We have attorneys with extensive experience in this area, some of whom were formerly on active duty and worked at military claims services. Our office also has an attorney who is a former military doctor. You will not find such specialized knowledge in many places. Our attorneys understand the process and will use their experience to maximize your recovery. In addition, a large percentage of our practice consists of representing people who have claims against the United States. Our main office is located close to Washington, D.C., the site of the primary claims offices for the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Let our experienced and professional staff help you with your claim.
