A mass tort is a legal action where many individuals file claims against one or more defendants for damages caused by similar harmful actions or products.
Unlike class actions, mass tort clients retain individual rights and receive compensation proportionate to their specific injury.
Individuals who have suffered injury from defective products, pharmaceuticals, or harmful practices affecting large groups may be eligible to file a mass tort claim.
Eligibility depends on the nature of the case and connection between the defendant’s action and the injury sustained.
The duration varies based on case complexity, number of plaintiffs, and legal proceedings, ranging from months to several years.
We focus on timely progress while ensuring thorough preparation and advocacy to achieve the best possible results.
Compensation depends on factors such as the severity of your injury, medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Each claim is handled individually within the mass tort to ensure fair and appropriate resolutions.
Many mass tort cases settle out of court through negotiation, but some may require trial proceedings if a fair settlement isn’t reached.
Our firm prepares diligently for both settlement and trial to best protect your interests.
We typically work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay attorney fees only if we secure compensation for you.
This approach minimizes your financial risk while providing dedicated legal representation.
