Office of General Counsel

 

OGC Opportunities!

The Office of General Counsel (OGC) is committed to providing the best legal service to those who are carrying out the promise to Veterans made by Abraham Lincoln in his 2nd inaugural address of 1865: 

“To care for him who has borne the battle, and for his widow and his orphan”

OGC identifies and meets the legal needs of the large and complex Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Our primary objective is to ensure the just and faithful execution of the laws, regulations and policies that the Secretary has responsibility for administering, and by so doing enable the Department to accomplish its mission of service to our Nation's Veterans.
