UNDERSTANDING YOUR CASE
Mass tort litigation involves legal action taken by multiple plaintiffs against one or more defendants for injuries, losses, or deaths caused by a product, service, or harmful business practice. Common types of mass torts include cases involving medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and environmental hazards. These cases are often referred to as MDLs (Multidistrict Litigations), as they bring together plaintiffs from across the United States.
Although our home base is in Texas, at Nachawati Law Group, we proudly represent clients in all 50 states. Mass torts are unique in that they allow individuals to join forces with other plaintiffs and law firms to seek justice against powerful corporations and negligent practices.
THE PROCESS
The timeline for mass tort cases can range from 5 to 7 years, depending on the complexity of the litigation. The process involves extensive investigation, evidence collection, record reviews, potential trials, and settlement negotiations. Throughout this period, you may be asked to provide evidence or documents, such as medical records, to support your case. While the journey may be lengthy, settlements can occur at any stage after the filing.
Every day, we rely on prescription, over-the-counter drugs, and medical devices to treat illness and injury and improve our quality of life. Unfortunately, drug companies may place a drug on the market without enough research and monitoring procedures and fail to inform and warn patients and healthcare providers about all the serious risks and side effects of their drugs and medical devices.
Environmental torts involve the harmful contamination of homes, health, and the environment by large corporations’ negligence or reckless actions. Despite existing environmental laws, or in many cases the lack of adequate regulations, exposure to toxic substances like asbestos, chemicals, heavy metals, pesticides, and radiation has led to devastating health conditions, including cancer, for countless Americans. Communities near manufacturing plants, mines, oil and gas operations, farms, and waste management sites are especially vulnerable to the effects of pollution. When companies carelessly pollute through spillage, emissions, improper waste disposal, or runoff, the resulting environmental hazards can cause serious illnesses or even death for both children and adults.
This environmental damage affects entire communities, leaving families to deal with long-term health and safety concerns caused by the reckless actions of corporations.
With over 25 years of experience in plaintiff litigation, the attorneys at Nachawati Law Group have secured hundreds of millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts for our clients. We are currently engaged in nearly every major mass tort case in the U.S., from water contamination claims to defective medical devices.
