Partner Jerry Lindheim and Associate Timothy Burke Receive Precedent Setting Decision For Vaccine Injury

Locks Law Firm is pleased to announce the recent victory of Partner Jerry Lindheim and Associate Timothy Burke in a vaccine claim that they litigated in the United States Court of Federal Claims in Washington, D.C. The case involved a woman who was administered the Fluzone vaccine, which the attorneys were able to prove was the cause of her subsequent cardiac arrest and death. The decision handed down from the Vaccine Court's Special Master represents a precedent for other vaccine claims in the country because the Petitioner's injury was an "off-table" injury, or one which the Department of Health and Human Services does not associate with the administration of the vaccine. As a result of the win, the petitioner's husband will receive compensation for his wife's untimely death and is also now entitled to seek additional compensation for her conscious pain and suffering. Locks Law Firm is proud of its tradition of aggressive trial advocacy on behalf of its clients and always works to ensure that justice is delivered to those who have been wronged.

Asbestos Found in Philadelphia Schools

Many people believe that asbestos was banned in the 1970s, it wasn’t. 

Regulations on the use of asbestos came in the 1970s when court documents proved that leaders in the asbestos industry were aware of the dangers but kept this information from the public. Commonly used in construction, asbestos is made of thin fibrous crystals and is highly resistant to heat. It is often used as a building material and electric insulator. Other uses include ceiling insulation, flooring, roofing and pipe insulation among other things.
