Understanding Vaccine Injury Cases
Vaccines are generally safe, and most people experience no serious side effects. While mild reactions are common, severe complications are rare. However, in exceptional cases, a vaccine can trigger serious health issues, including severe allergic reactions or long-term complications.
Legal Support for Vaccine Injury Claims
If you or a loved one has suffered from a vaccine-related injury, seeking legal guidance is crucial. A vaccine injury lawyer can help determine if you qualify for compensation through the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP). This federal program provides financial relief to individuals who can prove they were harmed by a VICP-covered vaccine.
Understanding Vaccine Injury Claims
Even in cases in which such a finding is not made, petitioners may receive compensation through a settlement.

Vaccine Court Claims – Who is Eligible?
Attorney Tyson Mutrux describes in this video vaccine court claims – who is eligible
Hi! Tyson Mutrux here with the Mutrux Law Firm. Today I’m talking about who is eligible to receive compensation through the vaccine court. Now, I’ve discussed what the vaccine court is under other videos, so if you have any questions about what that is, check out those videos. But to be eligible to receive compensation, you must have taken one of the covered vaccines, you must have been injured, and then injury must have lasted more than six months, it must have resulted in hospitalization and surgery, or it must have resulted in death. So that’s the eligibility requirements.
Vaccine Court Claims –
Can You Receive Compensation if You’re Not a U.S. Citizen?
Attorney Tyson Mutrux describes in this video about vaccine court claims – can you receive compensation if you’re not a U.S. citizen?
Hi! Tyson Mutrux here with the Mutrux Law Firm. Today I’m answering the question of, “Can you receive compensation from the vaccine court if you’re not a US citizen?” The answer to that question is yes, as long as you received it in the United States. There are other ways of recovering if you received outside the United States, which we’ll cover in another video.
Once it is done, the petitioner which will be you if you’re the claimant would have a chance to say whether or not you’re going to accept that amount in writing. You can’t do it verbally. It has to be done in writing. And then both sides will have an opportunity, if they like, to appeal it. You appeal it to the district court and then it can be appealed up from there. So, hopefully, that gives you better understanding with the processes.
Process for Filing a Vaccine Court Claim
Attorney Tyson Mutrux describes in this video process for filing a vaccine court claim
Hi! Tyson Mutrux here with the Mutrux Law Firm. Now today I want to talk about the process for filing a vaccine injury claim in the vaccine court. Once you file the claim with all the necessary records, it then gets sent to the Secretary of Health and Human Services then also to the Department of Justice. Both of those organizations prepare separate reports and they file them with the court and they’re actually put together as one report. Those are sent to the court and what happens then is a special master’s appointed to review the claim and they determine whether or not the claim is compensable and how much the person should have received.
Statutes of Limitation for Vaccine Court Cases
Attorney Tyson Mutrux Explains Statutes of Limitation for Vaccine Court Cases
Hi! Tyson Mutrux here with the Mutrux Law Firm. Today, I want to talk about statutes of limitation for vaccine injuries and deaths that need to be filed in vaccine court. Now, these can get a little complicated, so I’m going to break them down as best I can.
If you have any questions, just give us a call at (888) 550-4026.
For an injury, the deadline is three years from the first sign of the first symptom, okay?
For a death, it’s two years from the date of death and four years from the first symptom. So, you have to look at both—four years from the first symptom and two years from the death that resulted from the vaccine injury.
(888) 550-4026
Now, the vaccine court lists specific vaccines that qualify for injury claims. If officials add a new vaccine to the table, you have two years to file a claim, but it only covers injuries from the past eight years.
So, if the injury happened nine or ten years ago, you likely can’t file a claim. Even if the vaccine was just added, the time limit has already expired. Are you looking for a vaccine injury lawyer?

Whether You Need a Lawyer for Vaccine Court Cases
Attorney Tyson Mutrux Explains Whether You Need a Lawyer for Vaccine Court Cases
Hi! Tyson Mutrux here with the Mutrux Law Firm. Today, I’m talking about whether you need an attorney to file a claim in vaccine court or for a vaccine injury. The short answer? No, you don’t. But since it’s a legal process, most people choose to hire one.
And here’s the kicker: You won’t pay anything out of pocket. If your claim has merit, the fund covers attorney fees. You get compensation for your injuries, and your attorney gets paid without you having to worry about the cost.
Vaccine Court Claims –
Can You Receive Compensation if You Received the Vaccine Outside the U.S.?
Attorney Tyson Mutrux explains whether you can seek compensation through vaccine court if you were vaccinated outside the U.S.
Hi! Tyson Mutrux here with the Mutrux Law Firm. Today I’m answering the question: “Can you receive compensation through vaccine court if you received a vaccine outside the United States?” The answer is yes—under specific conditions.
If you got vaccinated in a U.S. territory, or you’re a U.S. citizen who received the vaccine while serving in the military, working as a government employee, or as a dependent of one, you may qualify. Additionally, you can file a claim if the vaccine was manufactured in the U.S. and you returned within six months of receiving it.
If you’re unsure whether you qualify, vaccine injury lawyers can help you navigate the legal process and fight for the compensation you deserve.
Vaccine Court Claims – What Medical Records You Need to Submit
Attorney Tyson Mutrux Explains Vaccine Court Claims – What Medical Records You Need to Submit
Hi! Tyson Mutrux here with the Mutrux Law Firm. If you’re filing a claim through the vaccine court, you must submit specific medical records. In this video, I’ll walk you through what you need to provide to receive compensation. If certain records aren’t available, you must explain why to the vaccine court. Here’s the list:
Submit any relevant medical records from before the vaccination, including clinic notes, private doctor visits, or other documentation. You also need to provide your vaccination record, which must include the lot number and manufacturer.
Post-injury hospital and emergency treatment records are crucial. If your vaccine-related injuries led to hospitalization, include all relevant records. Additionally, submit post-injury outpatient records if you received follow-up treatment from a doctor. If you filed a Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) form, include it as well.
For long-term injuries, provide supporting documents such as school records, consultation reports, educational testing records, or any other relevant files.
If you’re filing a claim for a loved one who passed away, submit their death certificate or autopsy report. For minors, include prenatal and birth records, along with the mother’s prenatal and delivery records, as well as the birth certificate.
By submitting the right medical records, you can strengthen your vaccine court claim and improve your chances of receiving compensation.
VACCINE COURT CLAIMS – FILING FEES
Attorney Tyson Mutrux describes in this video What is the filing fee if you’re gonna file a claim through the vaccine court?
Hi! Tyson Mutrux here with the Mutrux Law Firm. Today I’m answering the question of, “What is the filing fee if you’re gonna file a claim through the vaccine court?” The filing fee is $400. Now, whenever you file that claim with all of the information we discussed in other videos, and even the $400 fee, make sure you also include the medical records. That’s another key component of it, so make sure you have all that information.

It’s crucial to demonstrate that your symptoms developed within the relevant time window.Causation Between the Vaccine and Injury
It’s not enough to show that you received a vaccine and experienced symptoms. You must also prove that the vaccine caused the injury or aggravated a pre-existing condition. Establishing this link between the vaccine and the injury is essential for your claim.
