The Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) allows Naval families to sue the U.S. government when personal injury or death is caused by the negligence of the Navy, Army, Air Force, or Veterans Administration. Naval dependents who have been injured by medical malpractice at a Naval or other military hospital, by Naval doctors, or at VA hospitals have specific legal rights. Naval families' legal rights are an important part of our law practice and there is a time limit for filing a claim.
It is important for you to speak with an attorney experienced in handling medical malpractice cases involving the Navy as soon as possible once you suspect that you or a family member may have been injured by medical malpractice or negligence at a Naval or other military hospital or at the hands of a Naval or other military doctor.
