Client Testimonials
I was riding my motorcycle in Detroit when a tractor-trailer truck forced me to roll into an oncoming lane of traffic. I suffered a traumatic brain injury and bone fractures, which required surgeries. I chose Buckfire & Buckfire for my case and they settled it for $1,100,000.00. In my opinion, they are the best motorcycle accident lawyers in Michigan.
- Michael J. Smith, Waterford, MI
I chose Larry Buckfire as my medical malpractice lawyer for a wrongful death lawsuit against the VA Hospital relating to my father's death. He settled the case before filing a lawsuit. I give him the top rating for a Michigan medical malpractice attorney. He is the best!
-Sharon A., Ann Arbor, MI
If you need a personal injury lawyer in Michigan, I highly recommend Buckfire & Buckfire P.C. They won a Saginaw nursing home neglect settlement for my father after two other law firms turned down the case.
-Jeffrey R., Detroit, MI
When I was injured in a Lansing bicycle accident, I chose the firm to represent me in my no-fault insurance lawsuit and my uninsured motorists claim. They made the insurance company pay the entire policy and all of my benefits. If you are looking for the best car accident lawyers in Michigan, call them now!
-Robert M., Lansing, MI
I contacted the law firm after researching the internet for a Michigan medical malpractice lawyer. My mother died during surgery at a Lansing hospital. Larry Buckfire proved that an anesthesia error was the cause of her death. We are grateful for his hard work and the substantial settlement he won in our wrongful death lawsuit.
-Sherrie H., Chicago, IL
After suffering serious injuries in an Ann Arbor car accident, I wanted the top-rated Michigan auto accident attorney to handle my case. I chose Daniel Buckfire. Every time I was with other lawyers in Michigan, someone would say how lucky we were to have the "best". So thanks again!

FTCA - Veteran Administration Hospital Malpractice - Michigan Medical Malpractice Lawyer
The Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) allows servicemen, military dependents, and other non-active duty victims of negligence to sue government agencies in federal court for injury committed by military doctors and other health care providers acting on behalf of the United States. Many of these lawsuits are filed against veterans administration hospitals for medical malpractice claims and wrongful death lawsuits.
Filing A Federal Government Medical Malpractice
There are strict procedural requirements for filing a military medical malpractice case under the Federal Tort Claim Act (FTCA). These include submitting necessary forms and filing claims even before a lawsuit can be filed. The failure to comply with these requirements can result in a valid lawsuit being barred for technical reasons alone. As such, it is important to contact a Federal Tort Claim Act lawyer as soon as possible to preserve your legal rights.
FTCA Claims and Michigan VA Hospitals
There are several Veterans Administration Hospitals in Michigan. These include:
- John Dingell Veterans Administration Hospital, Detroit, MI
- VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System (VAAAHS)
- Battle Creek VA Medical Center
- VA Hospital, Allen Park, Michigan
- Albert E. Lutz VA Medical Center, Saginaw, Michigan
- Iron Mountain VA Medical Center, Iron Mountain, Michigan
- VA Great Lakes Health Care System
