Product Injury Claims

Understanding Mass Tort Claims

If you or a loved one has suffered a serious injury from a product that was supposed to be safe, you’re not alone. Across the nation, individuals are harmed every day by products that have been improperly designed, manufactured, or marketed. Many of these cases involve products where the manufacturer was aware of the risks yet failed to warn the public. A mass tort claim may be a path to justice for you and others who have been harmed by the same product.

What is a Mass Tort?

A mass tort is a type of legal action that allows multiple people who have been harmed by a similar product or incident to pursue justice collectively, while still maintaining their individual claims. Unlike a class action lawsuit, where one lawsuit covers a group as a single entity, mass tort cases handle each claim separately. This means that the unique details of each person's injury and circumstances are considered, allowing for personalized outcomes.

How Do Mass Tort Claims Work?

Mass tort claims typically arise in cases involving defective drugs, medical devices, toxic exposure, and consumer products. If enough people are affected by the same product, they may have grounds for a mass tort claim. In these cases, each person involved files an individual lawsuit against the same defendants (usually the manufacturers or distributors of the product). These cases are then coordinated to streamline the legal process, share information, and allow for more efficient proceedings. Each individual claim is valued on its own merits, and compensation may vary based on the severity of each injury.

Your Legal Options

If you have been injured, filing a mass tort claim can provide compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. Mass tort claims serve as a powerful tool to hold negligent companies accountable and prevent future harm. However, mass tort cases can be complex, requiring specific evidence, expert testimonies, and legal expertise.
