Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA)
If you’ve been injured due to the negligence of a federal employee or on federal property, a special procedure called the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) applies. FTCA cases often arise from accidents involving the U.S. Postal Service, medical malpractice at VA medical centers, incidents on military installations, and other claims against federal agencies.
FTCA claims are procedurally complex and involve jurisdictional issues and unique limitations not found in state tort law. Mishandling these cases can result in dismissal before the court ever reaches the merits.
As a former Assistant U.S. Attorney and trial attorney with the SEC, Troy has extensive experience litigating on behalf of the federal government. He now represents plaintiffs in FTCA matters, bringing an insider’s understanding of how these cases are evaluated and defended by the federal agencies involved.
