Washington DC Vaccine Injury Attorneys that have the experience you need, the compassion you deserve.

When you need a Washington DC vaccine injury lawyer, you deserve a team that lives and breathes the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program and knows how to guide you from first call to final award. As your Washington DC vaccine injury attorney, we help you file a vaccine injury claim in Washington DC through the federal VICP (National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program), where cases are heard in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims—often called “vaccine court.” Our experience as a VICP lawyer for Washington DC residents means we handle the heavy lifting: collecting medical records, working with experts, proving timing and causation, and presenting damages with clarity. Whether your case involves a flu shot injury, MMR, HPV, Hep B, or Tdap, we understand the unique standards vaccine court applies and how to position your petition for success. We know you’re looking for answers and momentum, not red tape, so we keep communication proactive while you focus on getting better. A seasoned Washington DC vaccine court attorney also knows that our interests align with yours from day one. If you’re seeking Washington DC vaccine injury compensation after SIRVA (Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration), Guillain-Barré syndrome, or another covered reaction, we’re ready to step in quickly, meet filing deadlines, and push your claim forward with precision. When you want a focused, results-driven VICP attorney in Washington DC—whether for a flu shot, MMR or HPV vaccines—you can count on us to advocate fiercely and navigate every step of vaccine court on your behalf.

What are the Common Types of Vaccine Injuries in Washington DC?

Common vaccine injuries in Washington DC include SIRVA—shoulder pain, stiffness, and reduced motion caused by an injection placed too high or deep—and GBS (Guillain-Barré syndrome), a rare autoimmune condition that can lead to tingling, weakness, and temporary paralysis. People in Washington DC also report brachial neuritis, adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder), bursitis, rotator cuff aggravation, vasovagal falls with impact injuries, anaphylaxis, and nerve pain syndromes following certain shots. Symptoms can emerge within hours to weeks, and prompt evaluation, imaging studies, EMGs, other tests, or specialist referrals often make the difference in documenting causation for a Vaccine Injury Compensation Program claim. If you live in Washington DC and are experiencing persistent pain, mobility loss, numbness, or weakness after a vaccination, you may be eligible for compensation for medical care, lost wages, and suffering through the federal VICP process. Siri & Glimstad is the right firm for your case.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I file a vaccine injury claim in Washington DC?

Washington DC residents file vaccine injury claims through the federal Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. We collect medical records, draft the petition, and file in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims (“vaccine court”). Hearings are often remote, and attorneys’ fees and costs are typically covered by the VICP, not you.

What deadlines apply to Washington DC vaccine injury claims?

Strict federal filing windows apply under the VICP and typically run from the first sign of symptoms. Acting quickly matters. Our Washington DC team reviews onset dates, preserves evidence, and files promptly to protect eligibility and strengthen damages, medical-causation, and expert support.

How much does it cost to hire a Washington DC vaccine injury lawyer?

In VICP cases, attorneys’ fees and costs are typically paid separately by the Program if the claim is filed in good faith with a reasonable basis. That means Washington DC clients usually owe nothing out of pocket to pursue compensation.

Alison Haskins represented us for my husband's vaccine injury claim and resulted in our winning the case. I especially appreciated that she treated my husband, traumatized by his experience, as a person. She communicated with us often, was kind and patient when he asked her to explain how the legal process worked, as often as he asked her to clarify. We are so happy that we trusted Alison's advice and followed her guidance. Her legal expertise made a significant positive impact on our lives.

Debra Gambella and Jessica Wallace assisted me in navigating the details of my GBS case. They made the process significantly less confusing and were always, often more than once, willing to patiently explain things. I also appreciated their accessibility. They were almost always available and more than once, I spoke with Jessica long after traditional business hours. GBS was tough, but Debra and Jessica made it far less unpleasant.

I had a bad experience in my Dr office with the flu shot . It was put in the wrong part of my arm and shoulder. After many years of gathering evidence and working with Christopher I finally just settled my vaccine case.

I appreciate everything you all have done and would recommend you to anyone I come across. Thanks again.
