Mass tort litigation refers to situations in which hundreds or thousands of people get harmed by a product and file lawsuits.
Current Mass Tort Cases
Here are some of the mass tort lawsuits underway for defective products:
- Mesothelioma: Usually, asbestos exposure in the workplace is the cause of developing mesothelioma, a type of cancer.
- Roundup: This popular weedkiller is associated with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and other cancers.
- Hip replacement: Some hip replacement devices have failed and caused painful physical damage to bones and muscles.
- Hernia mesh: Surgeons often use hernia mesh to surgically repair hernias and support the affected tissue. Some of these meshes cause infections or damage organs with extreme scar tissue.
- Several prescription drugs cause dangerous side effects: Some well-known prescriptions have ended up in litigation over dangerous side effects. If you suspect your current health condition is linked to your prescription drug, an attorney can help you determine if you have a case.
