The Vaccine Injury Compensation Program for Florida Residents

Vaccine reactions are incredibly rare, but unexpected side effects can happen. If you’ve experienced a serious vaccine reaction in Florida, help is available. Congress established the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) in 1986 as a no-fault program to file claims for financial payouts. The VICP trust fund has paid billions of dollars in compensation to thousands of people with adverse vaccine reactions.

Florida residents are eligible to file a claim in the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program because it’s a Federal program.

How do I File a Vaccine Injury Compensation Program Claim in Florida?

The first step for Floridians is to hire a vaccine injury attorney to represent you in the Federal Vaccine Court located in Washington DC. Whether you or your loved one got a vaccination as an adult, child, or a senior citizen, you can seek compensation if the vaccine’s adverse effects meet the Vaccine Program’s strict criteria.

Case Results for Florida Vaccine Injuries

The experienced vaccine injury attorneys at mctlaw have won over $18 million from the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program for our Florida clients. The average amount of compensation for our VICP clients in Florida is $162,857.

The most common vaccine injuries in Florida include: 

• Guillain-Barré Syndrome
  • Guillain-Barré Syndrome is frequently linked to the flu vaccine. This condition involves the patient’s immune system mistakenly attacking its own peripheral nervous system.
• Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration (SIRVA)
  • SIRVA, or Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration, happens when a vaccine shot is given incorrectly \into the shoulder. Usually the shot is given too high or too deep. These injuries can limit the shoulder’s range of motion and cause severe and long-term  pain. The most common injuries related to SIRVA are bursitis, torn rotator cuff, Parsonage Turner Syndrome, and frozen shoulder. 
• Transverse Myelitis
  • Transverse myelitis, or TM, is a neurological disorder caused by swelling of the spinal cord. It can lead to sensory damage, such as pain, weakness, numbness, paralysis, and loss of function in the lower body.
• Brachial Neuritis
  • Brachial Neuritis refers to the inflammation and swelling of nerve bundles responsible for transmitting signals from the spine to the entire arm. This syndrome typically begins with a sudden onset of intense, sharp pain, or burning sensation in the shoulder and upper arm, seemingly without any identifiable cause.

These cases are not handled at the local or state courthouses in your city or state. 

All vaccine injury claims must be filed in Washington, D.C.by attorneys who are members of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims Bar.

The VICP website lists 202 vaccine injury lawyers practicing across the entire United States and 10 of those lawyers are from mctlaw.

I can’t recommend this firm enough. They have an outstanding team that truly care for their clients…I have been awarded a fair six figure settlement.

Nate M.

When I say “they went to bat” for me…this Law Firm literally did just that. They persevered to bring the hard-nosed Manufacturer to settle and provide me some recompense for everything I had to endure which led to this suit.
