National Brachial Neuritis Vaccine Injury Lawyers

Experienced Chicago Brachial Neuritis Vaccine Injury Attorneys

Injuries that impact the central nervous system can be debilitating to those who endure them. Scrambled nerve signals, pain and even paralysis may require long-term treatment as well as emotional counseling and support. When you are injured by a vaccine, it is important to know to whom you can turn. Vaccine injuries, such as brachial neuritis, can manifest quickly and require medical care and therapy.

Helping individuals and families deal with the aftermath of a vaccine injury is of paramount importance to every team member of Kraus Law Group. Led by Attorney Ed Kraus, a respected, vaccine injury lawyer with over 30 years of experience in litigation, our team, including Attorneys Amy Kraus and Brynna Gang, is committed to fighting for just compensation in vaccine lawsuits for clients with brachial neuritis throughout the United States.

In one representative case, Attorney Ed Kraus represented a man with brachial neuritis following a flu vaccine. The client was awarded a lump sum payment of $465,049.52.

Understanding Brachial Neuritis Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment

Brachial neuritis, also referred to as Parsonage-Turner syndrome or neuralgic amyotrophy, is a disorder that impacts the function of the chest, shoulders, arms and hands. One of the first symptoms is severe pain from nerves in the brachial plexus. Other symptoms may include:

  • Upper arm and shoulder pain
  • Pain on one side of the body
  • Muscle weakness or paralysis in arm or shoulder
  • Loss of muscle control or decreased range of motion in the arm or shoulder
  • Numbness in the shoulder or arm

In some cases, brachial neuritis manifests without explanation, but it can also be the result of an administered vaccine. While it is rare to develop the condition from a vaccine, it has been linked to those containing tetanus toxoid (DTaP, DTP, DT, Td, or TT), though there are also reported cases involving other vaccines. In some cases, the injury heals on its own over time, but more severe cases may require medication management, physical therapy to manage the pain and improve muscle strength and control, and even surgery.

Helping Clients Pursue VICP Compensation in Chicago Illinois and Beyond

If you have developed brachial neuritis after receiving a vaccine in your arm or shoulder, you may be eligible to make a claim under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP). For almost two decades, we have focused on helping children and adults pursue the compensation they need to help recover from adverse reactions to covered vaccines.

Vaccine injury law is all we do. Since this is the only area of law we practice, we feel this gives us an edge over some firms that deal with an array of personal injury claims. We have an excellent success rate with tough cases because we have a team of knowledgeable, compassionate people who are willing to go the extra mile for our clients.
