Medical Malpractice in the Military

Medical malpractice in military medical facilities occurs regularly, but those injured or killed by these mistakes are often unaware that the military can be sued for their malpractice similar to any civilian medical institution.

Golden Law is one of a very few number of law firms that focus its practice on military medical malpractice claims. We are able to leverage our years of experience in the JAG Corps and within the civil litigation departments of the military to maximize settlements or judgements.

Our firm represents those harmed by military doctors and hospitals, to include: dependents, retirees, civilian employees, or anyone else treated by these facilities except military members. Currently, military members that are injured or killed by medical malpractice are typically NOT eligible for recovery.

Who Can Sue the Military – Eligibility

Our firm is organized to help anyone injured or suffering as a result of medical malpractice in a military or VA facility. Under most circumstances we cannot help those that were injured while on active duty or active reservists at the time of the malpractice.

Experience that Matters

Military Medical Malpractice Claims

Military hospitals and clinics are often used as training centers for junior providers, or worse, as an entry point for medical professionals that received degrees from subpar medical institutions. Your “free” healthcare in the military does not mean you have any less right to the highest standard of care. When they fail, serious accidents and injuries can occur.

Birth injury cases
Misdiagnosis & Delay
Medication errors
Denial of appropriate care

Military Medical Malpractice Payouts

We have pending or past military malpractice cases seeking more than $25,000,000. There is a long list of past cases with multi-million dollar settlements or judgements. Even in cases that result in relatively little long term impact can still be worth in excess of $100,000. The military is notorious for setting up teams of medical facility personnel to apologize and attempt to fix the problems without ever addressing your rights to financial recovery. Even those who do go through the claims process often settle for pennies on the dollar of what a trained attorney can negotiate.

Medical Record Review

We start all of our cases with an initial review of your medical records by trained personnel, or a doctor if necessary. After our initial review we will help you determine if your claim is ready to be filed immediately or if future medical care is needed before we attempt to recover on your behalf. In many cases, we may be the resource you need to arrange follow up medical appointments. *Client may be responsible for initial medical record review costs*
