Mass Tort Litigation

When a single product has injured many people, there may be advantages to bringing all the cases together in consolidated litigation, such as in state or federal multi-district litigation (MDL). These actions allow all plaintiffs and their lawyers to join forces and share litigation costs, offering an advantage against large companies with substantial resources to defend themselves.

Nationwide Representation for Victims of Defective Products

Mass tort litigation allows for assessing each plaintiff’s damages and circumstances while efficiently addressing claims that involve a common issue for many plaintiffs against a defendant.

Handling a Common Cause With an Individualized Approach

A single consumer product that turns out to be dangerous or defective can harm dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of people. Mass tort litigation makes it so all of these individuals can join together in holding the manufacturer, designer, marketing agency, distributor, retailer, or other party responsible. It provides a united front against large companies to level the playing field. Even though there may be so many individuals who were harmed, mass torts still ensure that individual damages are evaluated—compensation is not equally shared among plaintiffs but distributed according to specific damages suffered. This is one of the key differences between a mass tort and a class action lawsuit.

We represent clients in mass torts against companies such as:

Pharmaceutical Companies
Medical Device Manufacturers
Automobile Manufacturers
Consumer Product Manufacturers
Chemical and Industrial Companies
Agricultural Product Companies
Energy Companies
And Many Others
