Mass Tort Lawyers in Dallas, TX, Obtaining Financial Compensation for Injury Victims

A “tort” occurs when an individual’s rights are violated by civil action and not that of criminal intent. When many prospective clients hear the term “mass tort,” they are uncertain as to what this means. A mass tort is a lawsuit brought by several plaintiffs that combines all of their cases when the same defendant has injured them. However, unlike a class action lawsuit, each case is handled individually, and as a result, if the client wins compensation, it is based on the unique facts and circumstances that surround their particular case.

The mass tort lawyers of The Redwine Law Firm have vast experience in handling these types of personal injury cases. Not every personal injury attorney in the Dallas area is qualified or experienced enough to effectively handle mass tort litigation cases. Due to the complex legal issues that can easily arise from mass tort litigation, you need a law firm that has the qualifications and experience to successfully recover compensation for you.

Contact our law offices and ask to schedule a free initial consultation to discuss your case.

If I Recover a Settlement Do I Have to Share it With the Other Plaintiffs?

In a class action, a large settlement may be awarded but has to be equally divided between all of the plaintiffs. However, unlike a class action lawsuit, plaintiffs involved in a mass tort legal action are each entitled to recover their own compensation. Just as in any other personal injury case, if you are successful in recovering a settlement the amount that you are awarded is based on the damages that you suffered.

It is understandable that you would have questions about how financial compensation is awarded in a mass tort claim. If you would like more information, contact our law firm, and ask to schedule a free consultation with one of our knowledgeable mass tort attorneys who can gladly answer any legal questions you may have about this type of litigation.

What Kind of Personal Injury Cases Qualify for a Mass Tort?

A mass tort is simply a group of plaintiffs coming together to pursue financial compensation for injuries that they have suffered by the same defendant. Typically, there are common situations that lead to mass tort litigation. Some of the most repeated mass tort cases include:

• Injury due to dangerous drugs, including over-the-counter and prescription drugs.
• Injury due to defective medical devices. Some well-known examples include faulty hip implants and pacemakers
• Injury due to a mass disaster or toxic conditions caused by explosions at factories or oil spills.
• A mass casualty event that occurs due to a plane, train, or bus crash.

When these types of accidents occur, there is often a great deal of evidence that surrounds the accident. One benefit of pursuing a mass tort claim is that the attorneys working on individual cases can easily share information with one another and bolster their ability to obtain a settlement for their clients.

How Do I Know if I Qualify to be a Plaintiff in a Mass Tort Lawsuit?

One of the best and easiest ways to find out if you qualify to become a plaintiff in a mass tort lawsuit is to consult with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
