About David
David Anglin spent 12½ years with the U.S. Army Claims Service, including seven years as its commander, and has practiced law for 30 years. That career gives him an uncommon vantage point on the federal claims process: he has evaluated claims from inside the government and now advocates for the people bringing them.
Before taking command of the Army Claims Service in 2019, he served as Chief of its Tort Claims Division and as a Military Magistrate with the U.S. Army Trial Judiciary. His Judge Advocate career also included service as Deputy Staff Judge Advocate for Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve and as Staff Judge Advocate for First Army Division East. He relinquished command in July 2026 after 37 years in uniform.
He holds a J.D. from Southern University Law Center and an LL.M. in Military Law from The Judge Advocate General's Legal Center and School, and has been a member of the State Bar of Louisiana since 1997. The Judge Advocates Association named him an Outstanding Career Judge Advocate in 2011.
Today he uses that experience from both sides of the claims process to help veterans and their families secure the justice and compensation they deserve.
