Guillain-Barré Syndrome Triggered by Vaccination
Menu
Reviewed By Anne Carión Toale, Vaccine Injury Attorney
What is Guillain-Barré Syndrome?
Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) is a disorder that causes a patient’s immune system to go haywire and attack its own peripheral nervous system. Symptoms range from a feeling of pins and needles to complete paralysis and can begin anywhere from a few days to several weeks after vaccination. However, symptoms usually peak around one to two weeks after the shot is given. The chronic version of GBS is known as Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy or CIDP.
We've Won More than $85 Million in GBS Awards for our Clients
Vaccines That Commonly Trigger Guillain Barré Syndrome
- Influenza Vaccine or Flu Shot
- Hepatitis A or Hepatitis B
- Tetanus Shot, Tdap, or DtaP
- Meningococcal (MCV4) Vaccine
- HPV Vaccine
- Varicella or Chickenpox
The Flu Vaccine and GBS
Researchers who study vaccine reaction rates find that “GBS is more strongly associated with the flu vaccine” compared to any other type of immunization.
The Journal of the American Medical Association cites Guillain Barré as the most frequent neurological condition reported after getting the flu shot.
HPV Vaccine and GBS
There is evidence that the HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccination can trigger Guillain Barré Syndrome.
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says Guillain Barré has been reported after the HPV vaccination.
Other studies show that 72% of patients who reported GBS symptoms after an HPV vaccine experienced those symptoms within 6 weeks after their shot
Did You Get GBS After a Vaccine?
There is a time limit to file a claim, so don’t wait.
We may be able to help if you got GBS from a vaccination between 2018 and 2020.
What To Do if You Have GBS from a Vaccine Reaction?
- Contact a lawyer who is experienced in representing patients in front of the United States Court of Federal Claims. Filing a vaccine injury claim is an extremely complex process.
- There are no legal costs for an injured patient represented by mctlaw. Instead, at the end of the case, our law firm asks the Court for payment of the fees and costs spent representing you.
- This payment is separate from any money you’re awarded by the Court. You never share any portion of your payout with our law firm.
- Find out more about the legal process of vaccine injury compensation.

FAQ About the Vaccine Injury Compensation Process
Yes. We advise that you DO NOT attempt to represent yourself in the National Vaccine Compensation Program. Hiring a vaccine attorney comes at no cost to you because the Court pays for all legal fees.
There is NO cost to file a claim. mctlaw does not charge its clients to represent them in cases brought under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. We do not take a percentage or contingency fee from your financial award. We are paid separately by the Court of Federal Claims at the conclusion of the case.
As a service to our clients, our Firm also covers the costs of litigating the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, travel expenses, etc.
No. The Vaccine Court is located in Washington, DC and covers all vaccine injury claims in the United States. This is not a “local” case that a local personal injury lawyer should handle.
Our attorneys are ready to represent you no matter where you live in the United States and its territories. Our attorneys come to you at or near your home so there is no need for you to travel to our offices in Washington, DC, Sarasota, FL, or Seattle, WA.
First, we need a copy of your vaccine record. This tells us exactly what vaccines you got and when you got them.
Next, we’ll ask for copies of all relevant medical records and a list of every doctor or hospital where you’ve received treatment for your vaccine injury.
We use this information to gather the remaining medical records on file at each location.
We then turn over a copy of your complete and comprehensive medical records to the Court.
This process is designed to be quicker than civil litigation. With some exceptions, it usually is.
A hearing on whether the vaccine caused the injury often occurs within a year. Cases that settle can conclude in as little as a year or two. Other cases, despite our best efforts, can take several years.
Compensation includes monetary damages for pain and suffering, past and future medical expenses, past and future lost wages, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. Compensation for pain and suffering is limited to a maximum of $250,000. There is no limit of compensation for medical expenses and lost wages.
How Our Vaccine Attorneys Can Help
Maglio Christopher & Toale, P.A. currently represents hundreds of patients across the United States who are suffering from Guillain-Barre Syndrome triggered by a vaccine reaction.
Our law firm’s vaccine attorneys obtain compensation for patients with vaccine injuries by filing a lawsuit in the United States Court of Federal Claims in Washington, D.C. The outcome of the lawsuit determines what kind of compensation a victim may receive.
Very few attorneys are able to practice law before the Federal Vaccine Court. That’s why you should hire an attorney with extensive experience in this area of law. These are NOT simple personal injury cases.
