About Douglas
Doug Dribben brings a unique perspective to the Archuleta Law Firm: more than 28 years as an Attorney Advisor at the U.S. Army Claims Service, Foreign Torts Branch, where he adjudicated federal tort claims against the Department of Defense.
A retired U.S. Army Major and Judge Advocate, Doug knows how the government evaluates, defends, and settles FTCA, Military Claims Act, and NDAA cases — because he spent two decades doing exactly that from the other side.
“I spent 20 years evaluating federal tort claims from the government's perspective. Now I use that knowledge to help veterans and military families get the results they deserve.”
