OM DENNE EPISODE
Atty. Aaron Siri is the Managing Partner of Siri & Glimstad LLP, a national law firm specializing in complex civil litigation, class actions, civil rights, employment, immigration, and vaccine injury cases. The firm has grown to more than 100 professionals, while Aaron has handled numerous high-profile matters involving medical mandates, vaccine policy, informed consent, and government transparency.
Before Siri & Glimstad, Atty. Siri practiced at Latham & Watkins and clerked for the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Israel. He is the author of Vaccines, Amen, earned his law degree from UC Berkeley School of Law, and served as Editor-in-Chief of the Berkeley Business Law Journal.
In this episode…Vaccine debates often get framed as a choice between public health and personal responsibility, but the sharper conflict may be over who gets the final say. When does a medical recommendation cross the line into violating individual freedom?
In Atty. Aaron Siri's view, the government has a role in recommending vaccines, but not in taking away a person's right to refuse them. He argues that informed consent ends where coercion begins, and he points to liability protections and financial incentives as reasons consumers should scrutinize vaccines more carefully than ordinary products. For Atty. Siri, the broader issue reaches beyond vaccines: once people surrender the right to make their own medical decisions, those rights can be difficult to regain.
In this episode of the Align & Abide podcast, Dr. Kim Tran is joined by Atty. Aaron Siri, Managing Partner of Siri & Glimstad LLP, to discuss vaccine mandates, informed consent, and individual freedom. They examine why Atty. Siri opposes mandates, how liability protections shape the vaccine market, and why parents should research vaccines before making decisions. Atty. Siri also talks about legal recourse for vaccine injuries.
