Vaccine Related Injuries: What to Do Next

Being a parent or caregiver is hard work. You do your best to assure you are giving your child the best chance at life, making sure to keep up with pediatrician appointments and development milestones. You count on your child’s medical doctor and support team to give you sound advice on how to keep your little one healthy. Unfortunately, sometimes the unthinkable happens.

Vaccines are used to keep children and adults healthy, free from major diseases that can cause significant and chronic medical conditions. However, sometimes vaccines can injure children and adults alike. In these cases, mild or severe reactions can result in conditions ranging from paralysis to death. These injuries occur so frequently that the government taxes every vaccine and puts a portion of the money into a fund that is only assessable through the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. An attorney familiar with the program is able to help you navigate the programs rules to maximize compensation at no cost to you. The Program provides a mechanism where the Vaccine Attorney applies to the Government for attorney fees. You pay nothing not even a percentage of any award or settlement achieved.

If you or your child has experienced a severe reaction SHORTLY after administration of a vaccine it may be deemed vaccine related. Parents and patients alike need to be aware of this fact, because vaccine injuries commonly go undiagnosed as the injury manifests days after the vaccine administration. If you suspect your child of being a victim of a vaccine related injury, you are faced with major medical decisions quickly. You are consumed with the immediate health and safety of your child, but also are working through emotions that can include anger, sadness, and even guilt. It is impossible to think about receiving compensation for the injury if you are not working with an experienced attorney to advocate on your behalf.
