A mass tort is a civil action where many individuals who were harmed by the same product, drug, or chemical file claims against the same defendant. Unlike a class action where one person represents everyone, each plaintiff in a mass tort has their own individual case. This means your specific injuries, medical expenses, and pain and suffering are assessed individually, which often results in higher compensation than class actions.
Does it cost anything to file a claim?
No. Mass tort attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if you win. There are no upfront costs, no retainer fees, and no hourly charges. The attorney's fee — typically 33-40% of the settlement — comes out of the award. If your case doesn't result in compensation, you owe nothing.
How long do mass tort lawsuits typically take?
Most mass tort cases take 2-5 years from filing to resolution. Some resolve faster through settlement negotiations, while others that go to trial can take longer. The timeline depends on the number of plaintiffs, the complexity of the scientific evidence, and whether the defendant is willing to settle. Filing early can sometimes be advantageous, as it establishes your place in the litigation.
How do I know if I qualify?
Qualification depends on the specific lawsuit. Generally, you need to show two things: (1) you were exposed to the product or substance in question, and (2) you suffered a specific injury or illness as a result. Each tort has its own criteria. For example, Camp Lejeune requires you were stationed at the base between 1953-1987, while hair relaxer cases require a cancer diagnosis linked to chemical straightener use. Use our free eligibility check to see if your situation matches.
What's the difference between a mass tort and a class action?
In a class action, one or a few plaintiffs represent the entire group, and everyone receives the same settlement. In a mass tort, each person has their own individual lawsuit with their own damages. This means your compensation is based on your specific injuries, medical bills, and suffering — not an average across all claimants. Mass torts generally result in higher individual payouts.
Is my information kept confidential?
Yes. All information you provide through our eligibility check is kept strictly confidential and is only shared with the legal advocate assigned to evaluate your case. We never sell your information to third parties or use it for any other purpose. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
What if I already have a lawyer?
If you already have legal representation for your mass tort claim, you should continue working with your current attorney. However, if you're unsatisfied with your representation or your case was dropped, you may be able to switch firms. We can help connect you with a new attorney who specializes in your specific lawsuit.
Can I file a claim if the injury happened years ago?
In many cases, yes. Statutes of limitations for mass tort cases often begin when you discover (or should have discovered) the connection between the product and your injury — not when the exposure occurred. For example, Camp Lejeune claims cover exposure dating back to 1953. Each lawsuit has different filing windows, so checking your eligibility sooner is always better.
What types of compensation can I receive?
Mass tort compensation can include medical expenses (past and future), lost wages and earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and in some cases punitive damages. The exact amount depends on the severity of your injuries, the strength of the evidence linking the product to your harm, and the specific settlement structure of the lawsuit.
Do I need to go to court?
The vast majority of mass tort plaintiffs never step foot in a courtroom. Most cases are resolved through settlement negotiations. A small number of "bellwether" cases may go to trial to help establish the value of claims, but these are typically selected by the court — not random. Your attorney handles all legal filings and court appearances on your behalf.
Can a family member file on behalf of someone who passed away?
Yes. If your loved one passed away due to injuries related to a mass tort product, you may be able to file a wrongful death or survival claim. Spouses, children, parents, and sometimes other dependents can bring these claims. The estate may also have the right to pursue compensation. An attorney can help determine who has standing to file.
What is multidistrict litigation (MDL)?
MDL is a procedure used to streamline mass tort cases in federal court. When hundreds or thousands of similar lawsuits are filed across the country, they're consolidated before a single judge for pretrial proceedings. This speeds up the process and reduces conflicting rulings. Your individual case remains separate, but pretrial work (discovery, depositions, motions) is handled together.
Not Sure If You Have a Claim?
Talk to a legal advocate who can review your situation at no cost. Attorneys work on contingency — you pay nothing unless you win.
