FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

4) Who will decide my case?

There may or may not be an opportunity to negotiate for a settlement of the case during the administrative review process, or after suit is filed and before a trial. Settlement discussions depend on how well the claim is presented and how the involved agency feels about the claim. If the case actually goes to a trial though, it will not be a jury trial; your case must be tried in front of a United States Federal District Court Judge, who will decide all disputed issues, and decide how much in money damages to award, if any.

While our firm started in Orlando and its main office is there, for many years we have handled cases throughout Florida, and even out of state. To serve you better we have opened additional satellite offices in several major Florida cities. We use these offices to conduct client interviews, take depositions, and as war rooms when we have trials in these cities. When advantageous to you, we will also associate with other lawyers and law firms in some areas of the state to serve you better. If we do associate with other lawyers on your case it will be at no additional attorney fee or expense to you.

This site contains only general background information and is not intended to constitute specific legal advice or establish an attorney/client relationship. If you think you may have an FTCA case you should promptly contact a lawyer with experience in handling FTCA cases.
