Until We Win

If you suffered brain injury at a Florida VA or military hospital, you may be entitled to compensation under the Federal Tort Claims Act (28 U.S.C. § 2401(b)). The appropriate agency must receive an administrative claim within two years after it accrues, generally when the injury and its cause were known or reasonably should have been known. SF-95 or other qualifying written notice must include a sum certain (28 C.F.R. § 14.2). Missing a deadline can bar a claim; seek advice promptly about your circumstances. Our doctor-attorney team handles every step of the FTCA process at no cost unless we win.

What to expect from a review

Care settingFlorida

The care setting is part of the picture. The provider, the circumstances, and the records also matter.

The care settingWhere was the care provided?

The location of care and the provider’s employment status help identify which rules may apply. Care at a federal facility does not by itself establish a claim.

The sequenceWhat do the records show?

Treatment notes, tests, referrals, and follow-up records help connect the sequence of care and the questions that need review.

The legal routeWhich legal route may apply?

An FTCA lawsuit generally names the United States as the defendant. Active-duty servicemembers may have separate remedies; eligibility depends on the facts and applicable rules.

A poor outcome alone does not establish medical malpractice.

Veterans and military families trust Florida's VA medical centers and military hospitals to provide competent neurological and emergency care. Unfortunately, medical negligence in diagnosing, treating, or monitoring brain injuries can result in devastating consequences. These life-altering injuries affect patients and their families for decades.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that traumatic brain injury causes 30% of all injury deaths in the United States. Proper medical care could prevent many of these deaths. At the Archuleta Law Firm, our founding attorney is both a licensed physician and attorney—providing us with unique medical insight into brain injury cases and the clinical standards of care that healthcare providers must follow.

If you or a loved one suffered a brain injury due to negligence at a Florida VA or military facility, you have legal rights under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA). You must understand these rights and Florida's specific laws to secure fair compensation for your life-changing injury.
