Sullivan Papain Block McManus Coffinas & Cannavo P.C. Secures Major VCF Awards in First Quarter of 2017

Since January 2013, when the first VCF awards were issued under the Zadroga Act, through March 31, 2017:

• SPBMC obtained 1,166 awards totaling $560 Million.
• SPBMC achieved the highest award to date –$4.133 Million – for a client whose cancer was linked to his exposure to toxins at the WTC Disaster Site.
• SPBMC’s average award was 280% greater than the average of all other VCF awards.

Sullivan Papain’s success does not stop there. The firm has also been very successful in obtaining supplemental awards for its clients who, after receiving an award, were diagnosed with a new 9/11 illness or were subsequently found to be disabled by reason of their 9/11 illness.
