The Claims Division mission is to process, investigate, adjudicate, and negotiate the settlement of noncontractual claims against the Army filed at Fort Gordon.

We process claims for lost or damaged property, personal injury, death, disasters, and other costs arising from Army operations.

Claims

The Claims Division processes three broad categories of claims:

1. Tort Claims - Claims against the U.S. for personal injury, death, or property damage caused by the negligence of military personnel acting in the scope of employment or occurring incident to the noncombat operations of the armed services. These include claims under the Military Claims Act, the Federal Tort Claims Act, the National Guard Claims Act, the Foreign Claims Act, and a number of other claims statutes.

2. Personnel Claims - Claims against the U.S. filed by soldiers, DA civilians, and other military personnel for loss and damage of personal property occurring incident to service. These include claims for damage to household goods during a PCS move.

3. Affirmative Claims - Claims on behalf of the U.S. against negligent third parties for damage to military property or injury to military personnel.
