I’m trying to find a lawyer who specializes in vaccine exemption law. Can NVIC recommend a lawyer?
There are a number of lawyers and law firms specializing in bringing vaccine injury claims before the U.S. Court of Claims under the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act’s Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. However, it is difficult to find a lawyer who will assist parents in filing or defending a medical, religious or conscientious belief exemption to state vaccine laws. The systematic rejection of vaccine exemptions by state government officials (such as in New Jersey and New York) is a relatively recent development. As more citizens are unable to obtain medical, religious and conscientious belief exemptions to vaccine laws, there will undoubtedly be more lawyers specializing in this type of law. On NVIC’s website at www.NVIC.org there is a list of lawyers who have made their names available to NVIC. NVIC provides this list as a public service and does not take responsibility for the accuracy or quality of work provided by the attorneys listed on the website.
