Military Economic Damage Claims
There are close to two million service members in the U.S. armed forces around the globe and our country – and nearly one million serve in the national guard and reserves. Even though you don’t live near a military base, you might be missing substantial economic claims from service members in your files.
Military Legal Experts
Both attorneys and former members of the armed services, Dennis and Mike McCarthy will help you to spot these types of hidden claims and show you how you can establish these often-overlooked economic damages in your cases – from premises liability to auto injuries.
