Pearland Mass Torts Attorney

Fighting Aggressively to Recover Compensation for Consumers Injured By Negligence

Manufacturers that produce consumer products are often negligent to the point that a large group of individuals suffer injuries. Texas law allows a large group of plaintiffs to hold the same defendant accountable by filing mass torts to try and recover damages for their injuries.

If you feel that you have been injured and meet the eligibility qualifications to join a mass tort litigation, it is always wise to consult with a qualified attorney. An experienced attorney can professionally evaluate your case to determine the extent of your injuries and what legal options may be available.

Our Pearland, TX, law firm is passionately committed to helping individuals and families injured by negligence recover full and fair compensation for their harm.

If you need more information about mass tort litigation and if you qualify, contact The Kahn Law Firm, P.C. of Pearland, TX, today and ask to schedule a free consultation with a qualified legal team member.

How Can a Mass Tort Lawyer Help Injured Consumers?

Most individuals have heard the term “class action lawsuit” but are unsure what mass tort litigation entails. Lawyers file mass tort legal claims when a defective product has harmed a large group of consumers. However, even though the individuals involved in the mass tort litigation do not necessarily share the same injuries, they can still be involved.

Some of the most common mass torts include:

• Medical device torts: Plaintiffs have been injured or suffered death due to defective medical devices
• Product liability torts: Plaintiffs have been harmed by dangerous or defective consumer products
• Pharmaceutical torts Plaintiffs suffered injuries due to side effects of dangerous drugs
• Toxic torts: Plaintiffs suffered severe illness, injury, or death due to being exposed to commercial toxic chemicals
• Disaster torts: Plaintiffs have been injured in large-scale human-made or natural disasters or explosions

What is the Difference Between Mass Tort Claims and Class Action Litigation?

Although mass tort and class action litigation are similar, there are vast legal differences between them. The main objective of a mass tort claim, or class action lawsuit, is to prove that the product was defective, was the direct cause of injuries, and that plaintiffs receive justice for the harm they have suffered.

One similarity is that they both involve a large group of plaintiffs who have been injured by defective products. Another significant aspect of both mass tort and class action suits is that they allow the case to proceed as one single legal action rather than many separate claims.

One of the most considerable benefits of a mass tort is that individuals may be treated separately even though they are part of a large group of claimants. However, each claimant must present convincing evidence that they suffered harm or injuries caused by the product.

Conversely, in a class action lawsuit, claimants are considered one entity. For this reason, claimants do not have to present individual evidence that the product injured them. However, one claimant must be named in the legal action or as the class representative.

What are the Benefits of Mass Tort Litigation?

Although only a qualified attorney can determine whether your case should be filed as a mass tort or class action, there are tremendous advantages associated with mass tort claims that may be in your best interest. One advantage is they can accommodate large numbers of plaintiffs and even include more injured victims during ongoing litigation.

Some of the other benefits of pursuing mass tort claims include:

• A more efficient use of the court system as they cut down on the number of claims
• May be filed in state or federal court
• Can utilize media sources to publicize the claim to other potential claimants
• Can provide information to the general public regarding the risks and dangers associated with the product
• Reduce costs and expenses associated with filing an individual claim
