Nationwide Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration (SIRVA) Attorneys

Let Our Dedicated SIRVA Injury Attorneys Fight For You

Have you developed a shoulder injury after receiving a vaccine? At Jeffrey S. Pop & Associates, our dedicated SIRVA injury attorneys are here to fight for you.

An improper vaccine injection may cause sharp shoulder pain, upper arm pain, permanent swelling and tenderness at the site of injection, lumps or nodules, injuries to the nerves at the site of injection, rotator cuff injury, and frozen shoulder. In addition, a vaccination may result in Shoulder Bursitis, Brachial neuritis, Adhesive Capsulitis, and other shoulder injuries.

The following is a list of symptoms an individual may experience after receiving a vaccination:

  • Arm Pain
  • Shoulder Pain
  • Shoulder Dysfunction
  • Limited Range of Motion
  • Shoulder Bursitis
  • Tendonitis
  • Rotator Cuff Injury
  • Brachial Neuritis
  • Frozen Shoulder
  • Adhesive Capsulitis

These symptoms and conditions can last for several months or even longer. The improper angle and position of the needle may be contributing to these shoulder injuries. A previous shoulder damage or injury may be aggravated due to the inflammation of the surrounding tissue. Additionally, SIRVA may occur as a result of improper vaccination technique.

Jeffrey S. Pop & Associates, A Law Corporation, is a nationally recognized law firm handling vaccine injury claims, including Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration (SIRVA). SIRVA is a painful and often debilitating condition caused by the improper administration of a vaccine injection. Our firm is dedicated to helping clients nationwide who are suffering from SIRVA obtain the compensation they seek through the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP).

With decades of experience in vaccine injury law, we provide clients with a combination of legal and medical insight. Our attorneys understand the complexities of SIRVA claims and are committed to standing by our clients from the initial evaluation through to case resolution, ensuring that they receive the support and compensation they need to move forward.

How We Help SIRVA Victims

At Jeffrey S. Pop & Associates, we offer comprehensive legal services for individuals suffering from SIRVA, guiding clients through each step of the compensation process under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. Our attorneys are dedicated to helping our clients pursue fair compensation for their pain, suffering, and financial losses, providing representation rooted in decades of experience.

Case Assessment and Documentation
Our attorneys start by evaluating each client’s medical records and injury reports to determine eligibility for compensation. We work closely with medical professionals to document the injury, diagnose SIRVA accurately, and present evidence that links the injury to vaccine administration.

As part of this early investigation, we help clients organize imaging studies, orthopedic evaluations, and physical therapy records so that the full course of the shoulder injury related to vaccine administration is clearly documented. We also discuss the history of your symptoms in detail, including when pain first began, how it has changed over time, and what daily activities are now limited, so that your claim reflects the real impact on your life.

Filing a Claim with the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP)
Since SIRVA cases fall under the VICP, victims do not need to sue the vaccine administrator or manufacturer directly. Instead, claims are filed with the VICP, a federal program established to provide compensation for vaccine-related injuries. Our attorneys handle all aspects of this filing, preparing the necessary paperwork and adhering to VICP guidelines.

We explain each stage of the vaccine court process in plain language so you know what to expect from the initial petition, to government review, to potential hearings before a special master. Because these cases are heard in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, we make sure your petition complies with federal procedural rules and includes the medical and factual support needed to withstand scrutiny from government counsel.

Advocacy for Maximum Compensation
We pursue full compensation to cover all aspects of our clients’ suffering, including medical bills, lost wages, physical therapy, pain and suffering, and potential future costs related to the injury. Our experience in VICP cases helps us advocate for fair settlements and navigate challenges that arise in the process.

In many matters, this means carefully projecting future care needs such as additional injections, surgery, or long-term rehabilitation that may result from a vaccine injury lawyer proving the link between the injection and ongoing symptoms. We also work with vocational and economic consultants when appropriate to quantify the effect of your limited shoulder function on your ability to work, household responsibilities, and long-term earning capacity.

Our Process for Handling Nationwide SIRVA Claims

People often wonder how a firm can manage SIRVA claims for clients who live in different states. Because these cases are heard in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in Washington, D.C., we are able to represent clients nationwide without requiring them to appear in a local state court. We coordinate communication by phone, video conference, and secure document exchange so that you can move your case forward from your home community while we handle filings in vaccine court.

During an initial consultation, we review your vaccination history, the onset of symptoms, and any prior shoulder conditions to see whether your situation aligns with known patterns of SIRVA recognized in decisions from the Court of Federal Claims. From there, we outline the next steps in the process, including gathering medical records, confirming that the vaccine you received is covered under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, and tracking the filing deadline based on your symptom onset. This roadmap helps you understand the milestones ahead and what information we will need from you.

As your petition moves forward, we keep you updated on communications with the Department of Justice attorneys who respond to VICP claims and on any scheduling decisions made by the special master assigned to your case. If you live in a state with large vaccination programs supported by major hospital systems, such as California, Texas, or New York, we are familiar with the types of records those providers generate and how to obtain them efficiently. Throughout the process, our goal is to minimize disruption to your daily life while still presenting a strong claim on your behalf.

Understanding Your Rights: Compensation for SIRVA Injuries

When it comes to shoulder injuries related to vaccine administration, many individuals are unaware of their legal rights and the compensation they may be entitled to. At Jeffrey S. Pop & Associates, we believe that educating our clients is crucial to empowering them in their pursuit of justice. Our attorneys are dedicated to helping you navigate the complexities of SIRVA claims.

We take time to explain how the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program operates, including who funds the program, what types of vaccines are covered, and how awards are calculated. Understanding this framework helps you see why claims are handled differently than traditional medical malpractice cases and why choosing an attorney who regularly appears in this system can make a meaningful difference.

Here are some key points to consider regarding your rights and potential compensation:

  • Medical expenses you can recover: You may be entitled to reimbursement for medical bills related to your injury, including doctor visits, physical therapy, imaging, prescription medications, and any necessary treatments recommended by your providers.
  • Lost wages and earning capacity: If your shoulder injury has prevented you from working, you could claim compensation for lost income during your recovery period, as well as potential future loss of earnings if your duties or hours are permanently limited.
  • Pain, suffering, and life impact: Victims of SIRVA may be eligible for damages related to physical pain, emotional distress, and decreased quality of life due to their injuries, including limits on hobbies, family activities, and daily self-care.
  • Coverage of legal fees and costs: Our firm operates on a contingency fee basis, and in VICP claims reasonable attorneys’ fees and certain litigation costs are typically paid separately by the program, which helps you pursue a claim without the burden of upfront legal costs.

We also discuss important timelines, including the general three-year filing window from the onset of symptoms, so that you can plan your next steps and avoid missing applicable deadlines. By reviewing your medical history, work history, and current limitations together, we help you understand what categories of damages may apply to your situation and what evidence we will need to present on your behalf.

Our team is here to guide you through the process, ensuring that you understand your rights and the steps that may be necessary to pursue compensation. Contact us today for a free consultation and let us help you take the first step toward recovery.

SIRVA FAQs

How does SIRVA happen?
SIRVA usually occurs when a vaccine injection is administered improperly—either too high on the arm or too deep into the shoulder joint. The needle may penetrate shoulder tissues, causing inflammation or damage to tendons, ligaments, or bursae within the shoulder.

Can I file a lawsuit for a SIRVA injury?
If you suffered from SIRVA due to a vaccination, you may not need to file a lawsuit. Instead, you can seek compensation through the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), which covers certain vaccine-related injuries and provides an alternative to suing vaccine manufacturers or healthcare providers directly.

How long do I have to file a SIRVA claim under the VICP?
For SIRVA cases, you generally have three years from the onset of symptoms to file a claim under the VICP. It is important to act promptly, as timely documentation and filing can improve the chances of a successful claim.

What compensation can I receive for a SIRVA injury?
Through the VICP, you may be eligible for compensation to cover medical expenses, lost wages, physical therapy costs, and pain and suffering. Compensation varies depending on the severity of the injury and its impact on your life.

Do I need an attorney to file a SIRVA claim with the VICP?
While an attorney is not required, working with a vaccine injury attorney can increase the likelihood of a successful claim. Attorneys familiar with the VICP understand its requirements and can help present a strong, evidence-backed case.

How long does it take to resolve a SIRVA claim?
The duration varies depending on the complexity of each case. Some cases may resolve in a few months, while others may take longer if they go through a detailed review or appeal. Our team keeps clients informed throughout the process.

Is SIRVA covered for all vaccines?
Not all vaccines are covered under the VICP, but many commonly administered vaccines, such as influenza, tetanus, and MMR, are included. Our attorneys will help you confirm eligibility for compensation based on your specific vaccination.

FAQ

Common Answers To Your Questions

Have questions? We are here to help. Still have questions or can't find the answer you need? Give us a call at 888-891-2816 today!

  • What is a Vaccine Injury Lawsuit?

    There are two types of lawsuits possible for a vaccine injury. 

    1. The most common is a Petition (complaint) filed before the United States Court of Federal Claims (”USCFC”) in Washington D.C. These cases are always defended by the Department of Justice (DOJ) attorneys in the Vaccine Division. The DOJ employs approximately 35 attorneys. The Vaccine Division of the USCFC has 8 full-time Special Masters (Judges) who hear these cases. To file a federal case under the Vaccine Injury Program, it is wise to retain an experienced vaccine law firm to assist you as many cases need to be supported by expert medical testimony in order to succeed. Additionally, experienced attorneys know the potential value of a case when weighing the risk and likely compensation during settlement negotiations. 

    2. The second type of vaccine lawsuit is under State Law for products liability, or personal injury. It involves paying the cost for experts and depositions and varying legal standards. It may be more difficult to prove with respect to those vaccines not covered by the Vaccine Injury Compensation Act. For now, the traditional court system may be the only legal recourse available for non-covered vaccines. The exception to this is for Covid-19 cases. Sadly, Covid-19 cases are covered by the very restrictive Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) which is nonjudicial. Our law firm does not represent individuals in any administrative nonjudicial program.

  • Do I have a Case for Damages?

    Our law firm will advise you whether you have a case. It depends upon the type of vaccination you received, the timing of the adverse reaction, your current diagnosis, and whether you have achieved recovery. In complicated cases, an expert medical opinion will be necessary to determine the viability of a case.

  • What is a Vaccine Injury?

    Vaccine injuries refer to any adverse events that are caused by avaccination. For instance, a vaccine injury can be caused by the wrongful administration of a vaccine. Alternatively, an autoimmune response to the ingredients of the vaccine may cause an adverse event. These types of adverse reactions are rare, but at times painful or quite serious and potentially even catastrophic.

  • How Can I Get Help After a Vaccine Injury?

    The Vaccine Injury Compensation Act established the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP). This Act covers cases involving 17 different vaccines as indicated on the “Types of Vaccines” tab of our website.  

    Assuming that the vaccine that caused your injury or illness is covered by the Vaccine Injury Compensation Act, you have come to the right place. 

    Experienced vaccine attorneys, such as those in our law firm, will gather the medical documentation and vaccine administration record necessary to complete a Petition for filing in the United States Court of Federal Claims (USCFC). Additionally, we will attempt to answer all of your questions during this process.

  • How Common Are Vaccine Injuries?

    Vaccine injuries are rare when considering the number of vaccinations given nationwide. According to the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (“VICP”) statistics, less than 1% of vaccine doses result in adverse reactions. Many of these are not compensated since the adverse reaction lasts less than six months. Notwithstanding, many vaccine injuries are legitimate and must be fairly compensated.
