Frequently Asked Questions

Attorney’s fees and costs are paid separately out of the same Vaccine Injury Fund from which awards of compensation are paid, so you don’t have to pay your Vaccine Injury Attorney with your own money. The Vaccine Injury Attorney’s fees and costs do not come out of the award of compensation for your vaccine injury. Attorney’s fees are paid out of the Fund whether you are successful in your claim or not.

No. The court in which your case must be brought is in Washington, DC and covers all vaccine injury claims in the United States. Gold Law FIrm, LLC. is able to represent you before this Court anywhere in the United States or its territories. Our attorneys visit you at or near your home so there is no need to travel to our offices in Massachusetts. It is important to choose a vaccine injury attorney who has significant experience before the United States Court of Federal Claims (“Vaccine Court”). Gold Law Firm, is a National Vaccine Injury Law Firm. Vaccine Injury Law is all we do.
Gold Law Firm, LLC handles NO OTHER KIND OF LITIGATION, period. We don’t sue people, we don’t sue corporations. We are here to assist you during this process, to guide you and protect you. It’s a process and not a lawsuit. This Compensation Fund was set out to HELP, not to hurt any other party. You are not taking from US Government nor are you suing manufacturers. This Compensation Fund was set up specifically to help those individuals and families who have been injured as a result of a vaccine.
The first thing we’ll ask is for a copy of all the relevant medical records (if you have copies) and also a list of every doctor or hospital where you’ve received treatment for your vaccine injury. We use this list to gather the remaining medical records on file at each location. We are then required to turn over a copy of your complete and comprehensive medical records to the Court.
Your claim is initiated by filing a petition with the Court of Federal Claims in Washington, D.C. Once the petition is filed, a Special Master is assigned to the case. A Special Master is a specialized judge that handles only vaccine injury claims. The Special Master decides the outcome of the case instead of a jury.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) acts as the defendant in these cases. It is represented by Department of Justice (DOJ) attorneys throughout the process. HHS reviews the petition and decides whether to dispute your claim that the vaccine caused the injury or to concede that the vaccine was responsible. If HHS concedes that the vaccine caused the injury, the next step is to determine the value of the damages. If this cannot be agreed on there is a trial (called a hearing) on the topic of damages before the Special Master.

If HHS does not concede, there is an initial trial (called a hearing) on the issue of whether the vaccine caused the injury. The trial is typically held at the nearest federal courthouse to where you live.

You may testify and so may some of your family or friends. It may be helpful to have your doctor or doctors testify. An expert physician or expert physicians hired on your behalf will testify about how the vaccine caused the injury. Then at least one Health and Human Services expert witnesses will likely testify as to why the vaccine did not cause the injury. Following this the Special Master will decide whether the vaccine caused the injury. If the Special Master decides in your favor, then we go on to the issue of damages. If we cannot agree with HHS as to the value of the damages, we will have a second trial to determine the amount of the compensation.

Compensation includes monetary damages for pain and suffering, past and future medical expenses, past and future lost wages, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. Compensation for pain and suffering is limited to a maximum of $250,000. There is no limit of compensation for medical expenses and lost wages.

I used Howard towards the end of 2019 and could not have been happier with the service I received (which is why i made sure to come back and write a review). Very personable, knowledgeable and attentive. I would highly recommend him

Howard Gold did an excellent job for us. He is very knowledgeable and helped us make good decisions through the process. Howard is also warm, kind, and has a keen sense of humor. He also earned an excellent settlement for us. I have only good things to say about the experience.

Gold Law Firm did an outstanding job. We had no idea how to navigate the process or what to expect, and Howard was amazing at guiding us through. He got to know us well and whether it was his experience or he’s just an excellent reader of people (or both!), he would anticipate our questions and concerns and respond quickly and thoughtfully. We even had a few laughs along the way. Thank you so much for your help. You handled everything in a respectful, efficient, and kind way

I just wanted to thank you for all your help! I really appreciate all you did to assist me throughout the entire process. It was very comforting to know you were handling all the legal work that to me looked like a foreign language!
