San Diego Tort Claim Lawyer Jeffrey Frank Representing The Federal Tort Claims Act Since 1985
San Diego tort claim lawyer Jeffrey R. Frank represents individual clients and families in pursuing tort claims, such as medical malpractice, against the federal government under the
Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA). The federal government is generally immune from civil liability and damages in a lawsuit. However, when a federal employee is negligent in carrying out certain tasks within the course of his or her employment the federal government can be held liable for that negligence in a lawsuit. An example is an injury or death that occurred due to medical negligence or malpractice by a military or government health care provider.
Federal tort claims may be filed either in the jurisdiction where the injury occurred or where the injury victim lives. As a
tort claim lawyer in San Diego Jeffrey Frank has successfully handled numerous claims in federal courts throughout California and has years of experience handling all types of serious injury and death claims at both the administrative and trial court level. These cases include medical negligence claims against military and veteran's hospitals as well as personal injury and wrongful death claims against government employees.
