    Default Re: Injured in Iraq for Whistleblowing

    I'm not even sure what statute of limitations would apply for injuries suffered in Iraq. The government has rendered jurisdictional issues relating to contractors rather murky, for obvious reasons: they don't want the victims of wrongful conduct perpetrated by contractors to be able to sue in the U.S.

    Your best bet is to try to find a law firm which has handled a similar claim, and see if they will accept your case. Unfortunately I do not know of such a firm.
