FAQ

Morgan & Morgan

  • Mass Torts: An Overview

    A tort is a wrongful act that causes harm to another person. A mass tort, therefore, is a wrongful act – typically committed by a large company – that harms many people. Those who are injured may be able to sue the wrongdoer to recoup their losses.

    In a mass tort, multiple plaintiffs file civil cases against a defendant. All are making similar claims about damages from a product or service they used. Examples include injuries stemming from prescription drugs, medical devices, and faulty products.

    A tort case makes the claim that the plaintiff incurred a loss – whether physical, financial, and/or emotional – that the at-fault party is responsible to pay for. Although the victims may have been affected in different manners and to varying degrees, the common thread in mass torts is that a single product or service is being blamed for these negative outcomes. 

  • Mass Torts vs. Class Actions

    Mass torts and class actions are similar in that they both involve multiple individuals who have been harmed by a negligent party. However, they are distinct from one another in how the plaintiffs are treated.

    • Class Actions: In a class action, all claimants are part of a group that needs to prove wrongdoing, and participants are represented collectively. Those in the class all have the same injury or loss. For example, multiple people affected by a data breach may take part in a class action lawsuit.
    • Mass Torts: In a mass tort, each member of the group has an individual claim. Participants commonly suffer similar injuries, but the extent of the damages is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Mass torts generally yield larger settlements and verdicts than class actions.
  • Benefits of Mass Torts

    Mass torts have become a common legal mechanism for the victims of big businesses and governments. By combining your claim with other similar claims, you can:

    • Streamline the legal process
    • Ensure that all applicable arguments are applied in every case
    • Build the strongest case for compensation by demonstrating the wide-ranging negative effects of the product
    • Give yourself the best opportunity at recovering fair compensation
    • Help drive change that will prevent future injuries
  • Types of Damages Available

    Because every case is evaluated individually, the damages awarded to plaintiffs can vary. Depending on your specific losses, a successful case may help you recover various costs including:

    • Past and future medical costs (e.g., hospital stays, medication, physical therapy, surgery, and rehabilitation)
    • Lost wages for time missed from work
    • Reduced earning capacity
    • Disfigurement
    • Temporary or permanent disability
    • Pain and suffering
    • Emotional stress
