A.H. Robins Bankruptcy Trust

The A.H. Robins Bankruptcy Trust was created after the mid-1990s bankruptcy of A.H. Robins Company, a pharmaceutical firm. Its purpose is to compensate individuals who experienced health issues, such as injuries or illnesses, caused by certain products—most notably the Dalkon Shield intrauterine device. The trust manages and distributes funds to settle valid claims from affected victims, providing a structured way to address liabilities resulting from past product-related harms. It operates independently but is rooted in the bankruptcy process, aiming to deliver fair compensation while resolving the company's liabilities efficiently.
