Mass Tort

Mass tort cases are brought by a large number of claimants against a single defendant for injury related to a single product, practice or service. The goal of plaintiff mass tort litigators is to secure compensation for all of the individual claimants for injuries which resulted from the negligent, fraudulent or otherwise illegal actions of a manufacturer, distributor or employer. There are many types of mass tort claims.  These include: anti-trust claims, consumer product claims, defective design and manufacture claims, failure to warm claims, breach of warranty claims, discrimination claims, EEOE claims, race claims, employee benefits claims, insurance claims, medical device claims, and pharmaceutical claims.
