Civilian contractors working for the United States government at military bases throughout the world are subject to numerous risks and dangers. Some individuals suffer from illness, injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, or even death. These victims and their families may be eligible for compensation for medical expenses, disability, and more under the Defense Base Act.
Additionally, victims of injuries that occurred because of someone else’s negligence deserve to recover damages. These individuals and their families may need to bring a lawsuit to get compensation that covers their many expenses because insurance companies are unlikely to consider future, non-economic, and other damages.

A: The Defense Base Act (DBA) operates within the regulations under the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act. It acts in a similar manner to workers' compensation insurance for employees fulfilling roles in overseas military bases. If a worker is injured on the job at a military base, they may be covered for medical treatment, psychological problems, hearing loss, death, and more. To learn whether you are eligible for coverage under the DBA, reach out to our skilled legal team immediately.
A: Victims of any accident should act quickly to get medical attention. If the accident occurred on a San Diego roadway, certain laws apply. For example, the individual must stay at the scene of the crash, help other victims to a reasonable extent, notify the police, and provide contact and insurance information. It is also essential to keep track of your medical records if you need to file a claim with workers’ comp or a government program like the DBA. Contacting an attorney as soon as possible is also critical for collecting compensation.
A: Typically, California law permits an injury victim to seek compensation up to two years following the accident. This means they must start the legal process before the second anniversary of the day they got their injuries. Some lawsuits take longer to settle, which is permissible under California law. On the other hand, claims with the DBA have a shorter time frame of one year. This means that government employees must act quickly when recovering damages for injuries incurred on the job as an overseas contractor.
A: Military bases worldwide have implemented a technique of burning refuse known as burn pits. Unfortunately, the burn pits have also been used to dispose of hazardous substances, including paint, toxic chemicals, and human waste. Employees who work or live near burn pits may suffer injuries due to their constant exposure to the harmful fumes. These victims may be eligible for compensation. If you are a burn pit victim and have a severe injury, such as cancer, respiratory illness, or another illness, contact our law firm immediately.
A: Some injuries are not suffered by just one person but are universal across an entire class or occur in multiple situations. In these cases, bringing either a class action lawsuit or a mass tort claim may be appropriate. Mass tort lawsuits occur when multiple parties bring a complaint and are represented by one lawyer before one judge. Our law firm has extensive experience handling mass tort claims, so call us immediately if you are a victim.
