Legal Question in Federal Tort Claims in Indiana
sue FEMA
If I want to sue an entity like FEMA, can I simply list FEMA as the defendant with the headquaters address in DC, or do I have to find an officer of the agency and list them?

Re: sue FEMA
Just name the agency and serve the agency and the local U.S. Attorney. Not to discourage you, but if you have a decent case, you should be able to find an attorney in your county to represent you. There are quite a few procedural pitfalls in any federal case, especially FTCA cases. Call your county bar association and ask for a referral.
