Frequently asked questions about Saltz Mongeluzzi & Bendesky

Answers built from this firm's public case docket.

How do I find a good VICP lawyer?

Reasonable attorney fees in VICP cases are paid by the program — not by the petitioner — under 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-15(e)(1), so engaging counsel does not reduce a successful petitioner's recovery.
