Filing Vaccine Injury Cases

After receiving a vaccination, it is normal to have a mild reaction. Many children suffer a mild to high fever, irritability or mild measles rash after receiving shots for DTP or MMR. But if you or your child had an immediate reaction or have been suffering for a prolonged period of time, you may have a vaccine injury.

At the Law Office of David E. Marmelstein, we represent clients throughout the Eastern Seaboard who think they might have a case under the National Child Vaccine Injury Act. Our attorney works with parents whose children are injured and with adults who have had an adverse reaction to the flu shot. Schedule your free initial consultation with an experienced lawyer by contacting us online or by calling 888-651-2096.

What Are Common Symptoms?

The symptoms for vaccine injuries vary depending on the immunization, but any lasting condition or injury that leads to hospitalization or death is likely grounds for a claim. Symptoms can include:

• Anaphylactic shock
• Seizure/infantile spasms
• Convulsions
• Fever
• Rash

When we work with clients, we review medical records and the chronology of your condition. If you would like to review a more in-depth list of adverse effects, feel free to review the Health Resources and Services Administration's Web site.

What Are Common Vaccines?

• Influenza
• Diphtheria
• Tetanus
• Measles, mumps and rubella (MMR)
• Polio
• Hepatitis

What Might Lead Up to a Case?

Most children are required to have a series of vaccines, starting before the newborn has left the hospital. Pediatricians usually see the child after they have suffered an adverse reaction, and the doctor may not note it was because of the vaccine. Sadly, many parents do not know they may be eligible for relief until they see something on the news.

We offer clients the legal protection they need if they have suffered an adverse reaction to a vaccine/flu shot or if their child suffered a vaccine injury. Contact us online or call 888-651-2096 to schedule your free initial consultation.
