What Is Mass Tort Law?

If you’ve been hurt by a dangerous drug, a defective medical device, or exposure to toxic chemicals, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to fight alone either. Mass tort law is a type of legal action that helps individuals like you seek justice when a large company’s product or negligence causes widespread harm.

Unlike class actions, where everyone shares one lawsuit and settlement, a mass tort lawsuit lets each person file their own claim. That means your unique injuries and losses are recognized—while still benefiting from the strength of a group case. These lawsuits often involve hundreds or even thousands of people harmed in similar ways.

Mass Tort Cases We Are Actively Working — 2025

Because You Deserve Answers — And Real Help

When you or someone you love is seriously harmed by a product you trusted, it’s more than just a legal issue — it’s personal. At our firm, we understand that behind every mass tort case is a real person living with pain, uncertainty, and mounting medical bills.

That’s why we take mass tort litigation seriously: to hold corporations accountable, and help real people like you pursue justice and financial recovery.

Here are the most active types of mass tort lawsuits in 2025, and what you need to know if you’ve been affected.

💊 Dangerous Drug Lawsuits (2025)

Prescription drugs are supposed to improve your health — not cause long-term damage. But some medications are linked to cancer, organ failure, or developmental issues. In many cases, drug makers knew the risks and failed to warn the public.

Current drug mass torts include:

  • Zantac – pulled from the market due to a cancer-causing ingredient (NDMA)
  • Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro – linked to severe gastrointestinal disorders like gastroparesis
  • Tylenol (Acetaminophen) – prenatal use possibly linked to autism and ADHD
  • Elmiron – used for bladder pain, now associated with permanent vision loss
  • Tepezza – a thyroid eye disease drug, possibly causing hearing loss
  • Oxbryta – used to treat sickle cell disease, now facing safety concerns

If you’ve experienced unexpected side effects, we can help determine whether a lawsuit is right for you.

🏥 Defective Medical Device Lawsuits (2025)

When a medical device fails, it often requires multiple surgeries — and a lifetime of complications. You trusted that device to improve your quality of life. Instead, it caused more harm.

Current device cases include:

  • Hernia mesh implants – often lead to infections, chronic pain, and corrective surgeries
  • Hip and knee replacements – premature failures, metal poisoning, and mobility loss
  • Philips CPAP machines – foam breakdown may cause cancer or lung disease
  • Paragard IUDs – breakage during removal can lead to internal injuries and infertility
  • Cochlear implants – linked to premature failure and hearing complications

These lawsuits are about more than compensation — they’re about restoring dignity and holding manufacturers accountable.

☣️ Toxic Exposure Lawsuits (2025)

Many people are unknowingly exposed to dangerous chemicals for years before symptoms appear. The damage is silent — but devastating. Cancer, organ failure, birth defects, and lifelong health issues are tragically common.

Toxic exposure lawsuits include:

  • Camp Lejeune water contamination – affecting veterans and families over decades
  • AFFF firefighting foam – linked to several forms of cancer in first responders and military personnel
  • PFAS “forever chemicals” – found in drinking water across the U.S.
  • Roundup weed killer – connected to non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma
  • Train derailments and chemical spills – including East Palestine, Ohio
  • Asbestos exposure – still causing mesothelioma and lung cancer decades later

If you’ve been diagnosed with a serious illness and suspect exposure played a role, you’re not alone — and you have legal rights.

🧴 Dangerous Consumer Products (2025)

Everyday items like baby powder, hair products, and kitchen appliances should never cause lifelong harm. Yet thousands of consumers are now filing claims after using products that were marketed as safe.

Active product liability cases include:

  • Talcum powder – linked to ovarian cancer and mesothelioma
  • Hair relaxers and straighteners – now associated with uterine and endometrial cancer
  • E-cigarettes and vapes – causing lung damage, addiction, and even explosions
  • Pressure cookers – defective designs have led to burn injuries and trauma
  • Infant formula – NEC lawsuits allege certain brands caused fatal digestive diseases in premature babies

If your family has been affected, it’s not your fault — and you may be eligible for compensation.

💬 Why Mass Tort Lawsuits Matter

Mass tort cases aren’t just about lawsuits — they’re about holding massive corporations accountable for the harm they cause. When profits are put ahead of people, the legal system is one of the only tools we have to fight back.

These lawsuits can help victims recover compensation for:

  • Emergency care and long-term medical treatment
  • Lost income or job loss due to injury
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
  • Wrongful death or loss of a loved one

💰 How Much Can Mass Tort Settlements Be Worth?

There’s no one-size-fits-all number — and that’s a good thing. Mass tort settlements are based on your individual injuries, medical history, and the long-term impact on your life.

Estimated settlement ranges (2025):

  • Minor to moderate injury: $10,000 – $100,000+
  • Major, long-term injury: $100,000 – $500,000+
  • Catastrophic or permanent harm: $500,000 – $10 million+

We fight to ensure your case reflects the full extent of what you’ve lost — and what you deserve.

How Do Mass Tort Lawsuits Work?

Mass tort litigation cases involve several key steps:

In this phase lawyers collect evidence such as medical records, product details, or environmental data to determine the validity of claims. During the discovery process, both parties exchange crucial information, including witness testimonies, expert analyses, and internal corporate documents, to build a strong foundation for the case.

In mass tort settlement cases, MDL is often used to consolidate similar claims from multiple applicants to streamline pre-trial procedures. A single federal court oversees the coordination of discovery, legal arguments, and settlement negotiations, ensuring efficiency and consistency. Despite this centralization, each applicant’s individual case is preserved, allowing for personalized legal attention and compensation determination.

In mass tort cases, damages are determined on an individualized basis, unlike class actions where compensation is distributed equally among plaintiffs. Each plaintiff’s unique circumstances are evaluated, considering factors such as the severity of injuries, medical expenses, lost income, and emotional distress. This ensures that each victim receives fair compensation tailored to their specific experience and harm.

Mass Torts vs. Class Actions

While both mass torts and class actions involve collective legal action, there are significant differences between the two:

Mass Torts

  • Individual Claims: In mass tort cases, each applicant maintains their individual lawsuit, even though they share a common issue (e.g., defective product, harmful drug).
  • Personalized Damages: Compensation is determined based on each individual’s specific injuries, medical costs, and other unique factors.
  • Distinct Legal Representation: Applicants often have separate attorneys, ensuring their individual interests are prioritized while benefiting from shared legal resources.

Class Actions

  • Collective Claim: In class actions, plaintiffs are grouped into a single class, with one representative plaintiff taking the lead in the lawsuit.
  • Shared Damages: Compensation is typically divided equally among all plaintiffs in the class, regardless of the severity of their individual claims.
  • Unified Legal Representation: A single mass law firm represents the entire class, potentially leading to a more generalized approach to the case.

Ultimately, mass tort allows for more individualized justice and compensation, while class actions are more streamlined but may not fully address the unique needs of each complainant.

Why File a Mass Tort Lawsuit?

  • Hold corporations or manufacturers responsible for their negligence or harmful products.
  • Request compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
  • Pursue collective justice while preserving individual claims and unique damages.
  • Benefit from shared legal resources and streamlined litigation while maintaining personalized legal representation.
  • Encourage changes in corporate practices and safety standards to protect others.
