National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP)

Schedule a Free Consultation

Over 5,000 petitioners have filed suit in the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (“NVICP”) alleging vaccines caused autism in their children. Due to similar issues, experts, and discovery for each case, the cases were filed under the Omnibus Autism Proceeding (“OAP”) in the NVICP. The decision was made that six test cases would be tried so that certain uniform issues pertinent to every case could be decided. These cases were tried over the past two years.
Unfortunately, the Special Masters in the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (“NVICP”) have now ruled that in all six test cases the petitioners have failed to meet their burden of proof on general causation and specific causation. In other words, the petitioners lost since the Court believed that there was not sufficient scientific evidence to support the allegation that vaccines can and have caused autism in the past. The following are the decisions on three of the test cases.

TESTIMONIALS

Best law office ever! I have been going through a case and been smooth sailing from day one because of the amazing attorney and staff that has dedicated their time for me.
Tiffany Dalton
My family and I came to Terrell and Hogans office about 4 years ago after meeting with 3 other firms here in Jacksonville. My family and I suffered a great loss, our father. He was killed by a physician's negligence. Mr. Hogan's hard work and commitment changed the course of my family's life. We will all be eternally grateful for their passionate work and their personal dedication to do the right thing.
Aaron Cooper
I was referred to Joe by a family friend and reached out to him regarding a death in my family. After meeting with him on various phone conferences he was very passionate about helping me pursue my case and also very informative every step of the way in ensuring I was comfortable with all decisions. As the close to my case has come about I am very appreciative to have been able to work with Joe and the others at Terrell • Hogan.
Lainey R.
Mr. Hogan was very helpful. He and his staff always called me back and kept me informed about my case. He did a great job for me and my family.
Former Client
Over a period of 3 years Chris worked on our case incurring several hundred thousand dollars in expenses for our case, yes hundreds of thousands of dollars in just expenses they paid for in advance, something we could have never done. I can't even imagine the number of hours Chris spent working on our case. In the end Chris finally reached the goal we all hoped for. Chris changed my family's life forever and selecting their firm to work with was a defining moment in my family's life.
