What Is a Mass Tort Case?

A mass tort case involves many people who were harmed by the same defective drug, product, or device. Unlike class actions, each person has an individual claim, but all the cases are grouped together to make the process more efficient.

Examples

• Defective medical devices
• Dangerous prescription drugs
• Contaminated water or chemicals

Why Join a Mass Tort?
