Texas Vaccine Injury Lawyers

How can the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program Help if I Had a Vaccine Reaction?

Financial help is available if you’ve had a severe vaccine reaction in Texas. In 1986 Congress established the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) to pay people with severe vaccine reactions. This federal program provides payouts totaling billions of dollars to thousands of individuals who experienced vaccine reactions, including those in Texas. 

Texas residents can file a claim in the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program because it’s a Federal program open to anyone in the US. 

IMPORTANT: The information below does NOT apply to injuries from COVID-19 vaccinations.

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

  1. The first step for Texans to file a vaccine injury claim is to hire an attorney who is licensed to practice in the Vaccine Court. 
  2. The vaccine injury attorneys at mctlaw file your case and submit all evidence to the court, including expert witnesses and medical records. 
  3. Our team represents you throughout the process and advocates for you. We consult with your doctors and outside medical experts when necessary.

To be eligible to file a claim, the effects of the vaccine injury must meet the following criteria:

  • The vaccine must be covered by the VICP.
  • The claim must be filed before the VICP’s eligibility deadline.
  • The effects of the injury must last for more than 6 months after receiving the vaccine, or
  • Result in a hospital stay and surgery, or
  • Result in death.

The VICP offers assistance to individuals and families in Texas dealing with vaccine-related injuries. If you believe you meet the eligibility criteria for compensation under the VICP, our team of vaccine injury lawyers can evaluate your case and represent you in the program at no cost to you.

Do I Need to Hire a Vaccine Injury Attorney in Texas?

For Texas residents, ALL vaccine claims must be submitted to the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, located in Washington, D.C. The Court of Federal Claims is commonly known as the Vaccine Court because of this. These cases are not file at local or state courthouses within Texas. Instead, they are specifically filed in Washington, D.C., within the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, by attorneys who are members of the Court of Federal Claims Bar. 

It is important to hire a vaccine injury lawyer with experience in the VICP (Vaccine Injury Compensation Program) rather than solely focusing on finding one near your location in Texas. The VICP website lists 202 vaccine injury lawyers practicing across the entire United States and 10 of those lawyers are from mctlaw

It’s more important to hire an attorney with experience in the VICP than hiring a lawyer close to your location. A lawyer who regularly practices in the VICP will give you a strong opportunity of getting compensation through the program.

As an experienced leader in these types of lawsuits, we were confident the firm would have the expertise. However, what surprised us most was the high level of excellent customer service from the firm’s staff!

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.
