Wisconsin Vaccine Law Attorneys
Navigating the complexities of vaccine injury law can be overwhelming for individuals and families affected by adverse vaccine reactions. At Lommen Abdo, we focus on helping people in Wisconsin who have experienced vaccine injuries pursue justice and compensation. Our dedicated team provides compassionate legal support to ensure your rights are protected under the law.
Legal Help for Vaccine Injury Victims in Wisconsin
Vaccine injuries, though rare, can have devastating effects on an individual’s life. Symptoms may range from pain and discomfort to life-altering conditions that require ongoing medical care. For these individuals, the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) serves as a critical resource for securing financial recovery without the need to sue vaccine manufacturers directly.
At Lommen Abdo, we understand the unique challenges faced by those dealing with vaccine injuries. Our attorneys are committed to guiding you through the legal process, providing a voice for justice, and ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve.
What Is the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP)?
The VICP was established in 1986 as a federal program designed to compensate individuals who suffer injuries due to vaccines. Administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the VICP allows individuals to file claims for vaccine-related injuries without undergoing the lengthy and costly process of traditional litigation.
How the VICP Works:
- The program applies to vaccines recommended by the CDC for children and pregnant women, such as the flu, MMR, and Tdap vaccines.
- Injuries covered include those listed in the Vaccine Injury Table, such as anaphylaxis, Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), and shoulder injuries related to vaccine administration (SIRVA). Claims for unlisted injuries are also possible if causation can be proven.
- Claimants file petitions with the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, where a special master reviews the evidence and determines compensation eligibility.
The VICP provides an efficient process for recovering medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering. However, the program has strict deadlines and procedural requirements, which makes having knowledgeable legal representation crucial.

What injuries are covered under the VICP?
The VICP covers a range of injuries listed in the Vaccine Injury Table, including anaphylaxis, GBS, and SIRVA. Injuries not explicitly listed may also be compensated if there is sufficient evidence linking them to a vaccine.
What compensation can I receive?
Compensation under the VICP can include:
- Medical expenses related to the injury.
- Lost wages from time missed at work.
- Pain and suffering up to $250,000.
- Funeral expenses in cases of vaccine-related death.
How long do I have to file a claim?
For most injuries, claims must be filed within three years of the onset of symptoms. For vaccine-related deaths, the deadline is two years from the date of death. Prompt action is critical to preserve your rights.
Do I need an attorney to file a claim?
While it is not mandatory, having an attorney significantly increases the likelihood of a successful claim. The VICP covers reasonable attorneys’ fees, so you can access legal support without reducing your compensation award.
