The Defense Base Act exists to protect people who work for private employers on U.S. military bases, certain contractors who perform work connected with the military, and people who work for American employers that benefit the military outside of the United States such as the USO.
If you fall into one of these categories and you’ve been injured then you need an experienced Death Base Act attorney to help you with your recovery.
When you are thinking about hiring an attorney, it is important to ask your lawyer the following questions:
- What is your experience handling Defense Base Act cases?
- How will my case be filed and what should I expect after it is filed?
- What will you do if the Office of Worker’s Compensation Programs refuses to provide me with a fair settlement?
Your Defense Base Act lawyer should be able to answer all of these questions as well as any others that you might have so that you can be confident that you have a qualified attorney fighting for you!
