Taking It Nationwide: Why Donald Smolen Is the Attorney You Want for Federal Cases

When justice is on the line in a federal case, you need more than a local lawyer—you need someone with the experience, strategy, and strength to take on powerful institutions. Whether it’s a civil rights violation, a Federal Tort Claim, or a case involving government misconduct, Donald Smolen has earned a national reputation for fearless litigation and results that matter.

What Is a Federal Case?

Federal cases involve matters governed by U.S. law or those that involve government agencies, interstate activity, or constitutional rights. They are tried in U.S. District Courts and can include:

  • Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) – Injuries caused by federal employees or government negligence
  • Civil Rights Violations – Police misconduct, prison abuse, and excessive force cases
  • Class Actions & Mass Torts – Multi-plaintiff lawsuits with national reach
  • Whistleblower/False Claims Act Cases – Reporting fraud against federal agencies
  • Wrongful Death in Federal Custody – Suits involving prisons, detention centers, or juvenile facilities

Federal litigation demands deep legal knowledge and the courage to challenge systemic failures. That’s exactly what Donald Smolen brings to the table.
