HomeProtection for Children Who Have Suffered From ImmunizationsEach year, thousands of people receive vaccines to prevent diseases or contagious illnesses. Many people suffer little, if any, reaction to the medicine. Unfortunately, some people have reactions that are much worse than the illness they were hoping to prevent. If your child has suffered a lasting injury or illness after an immunization, you may be eligible for protection under the National Child Vaccine Injury Act. At the Law Office of David E. Marmelstein, we have over 25 years of experience representing clients in legal matters, and we have dedicated the past five years of our practice to helping parents protect their children. Learn more about the representation we offer by contacting our firm online or by calling 888-651-2096. What is the National Child Vaccine Injury Act?The National Child Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) was created in a response to the rising number of vaccine-related injuries. Parents were addressing concerns such as:
Protected by the NCVIA and the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP or VICP), parents have a chance at offering their children the medical representation they need. Because of the nature of the matter, these cases are often paper-intensive. Attorney David Marmelstein works closely with clients to make sure the relevant information is pulled from medical records and correctly put into context for filing a claim. Tell Me More About Filing a ClaimOur firm is located in Enfield, Connecticut, but we represent clients throughout the Eastern Seaboard and the rest of the United States. There are very few lawyers that handle cases like this, and the only court that has jurisdiction is the US Court of Federal Claims in Washington, D.C. Thanks to technology, however, you will not need to travel to D.C. to file and pursue a claim for your case. We work with the government attorneys and the judges to use teleconferences to give you the representation you need without extensive travel or relocation on your part. Many people also worry about the cost of filing a claim. Filing a claim under the NCVIA may require upfront costs depending on your financial situation. Fees are subject to approval and are paid for under the act. If we receive a favorable judgment or settlement on your behalf, attorney's fees and costs are paid through the NCVIA. If we do not receive a settlement or award, there are no legal fees or costs to you. Schedule your free initial consultation with an experienced lawyer by contacting our firm online or by calling 888-651-2096. When we work with clients, we stay with them throughout the life of their case, whether by negotiation, settlement or litigation. |
