Mass Tort Litigation

Mass tort litigation refers to a legal process where a large group of people comes together to sue one or more defendants, usually for harm caused by the same issue, such as a defective product or exposure to harmful substances. Unlike class actions, where individuals are represented as a single group, mass torts allow each plaintiff to maintain their own individual case while benefiting from shared resources and collective evidence. This approach enables victims to seek compensation for their injuries or losses while holding the responsible parties accountable for their actions.
