Martorana Law

A mass tort involves multiple plaintiffs who have suffered similar injuries due to a common defendant, but each case is treated individually. Unlike a class action, where a single lawsuit is filed on behalf of a large group, mass torts allow for individual claims to be pursued separately.

Eligibility for a mass tort depends on factors such as the type of injury, the defendant involved, and the circumstances of your case. Consult with our legal team to evaluate your situation and determine if you meet the criteria to join an existing mass tort or file an individual claim.

The compensation in a mass tort settlement varies based on factors like the severity of injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages. Our legal team will assess the specifics of your case and provide guidance on the potential compensation you may be entitled to.

The timeline for resolving a mass tort case varies, and it depends on factors such as the complexity of the case, the number of parties involved, and court procedures. Some cases may be resolved in a few months, while others could take several years. Our attorneys will keep you informed about the progress of your case.

No. In mass tort cases, legal fees are handled on a contingency basis. This means you only pay legal fees if the case is successful, and the fees are typically a percentage of the settlement or award. During an initial consultation, we can discuss our fee structure and address any concerns you may have about legal costs.
