Office of Special Masters

The Office of Special Masters is part of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, which handles cases involving vaccine injuries and vaccine-related claims. It provides a faster, more specialized process for individuals seeking compensation for injuries allegedly linked to vaccinations. Special Masters, who are appointed by the court, review evidence, hear testimonies, and make decisions on claims. Their goal is to ensure fair resolutions based on established legal standards and medical evidence, enabling claimants to receive compensation without going through a lengthy trial process.
