When you or someone you know is hurt by the medical care of the VA or military, I am here to help. I was an attorney with the Department of Veterans Affairs Office of District Counsel in Los Angeles for 10 years. I was directly involved with the evaluation, investigation, and settlement of claims pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act. Since I left the Agency in 1985, my private legal practice has been devoted to Federal Tort Claims Actions with an emphasis in the area of personal injury and medical malpractice, representing veterans, military dependents and their families, in actions throughout California, as well as nationally.
Few individuals know if, when, and how to pursue Federal Tort Claims Act cases.
Most affected people and their families are unaware of their options should they be injured by government actions. If you feel have questions, please contact my office. My initial discussion and evaluation will be free of charge, and I customarily accept meritorious cases on a contingency basis. J. Steffin Web Site Hosted by Access Now 2000 .
