Do I need a Massachusetts lawyer for a vaccine injury claim?

No. Every vaccine injury claim in the country is filed in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in Washington, DC, and handled remotely. A Massachusetts attorney is convenient, not required. What matters is experience in the vaccine court specifically.

What does a vaccine injury lawyer in Massachusetts cost?

Nothing out of pocket. The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program pays reasonable attorney fees and costs directly, whether or not the claim succeeds, as long as it was filed in good faith with a reasonable basis.

What is the deadline to file in Massachusetts?

The deadline is federal and the same in every state: 3 years from the first symptom for an injury, and 2 years from the death, and within 4 years of the first symptom for a death.
