Mass Torts & Complex Litigation Attorney
Some cases involve more than a single injury or isolated act of negligence. When defective products, dangerous pharmaceuticals, or widespread corporate misconduct cause harm across communities, litigation may proceed on a coordinated or nationwide basis.
Southern Med Law represents individuals in mass tort and complex litigation matters involving serious injury and high-stakes legal issues. These cases often require extensive discovery, multi-district coordination, and leadership-level participation.
What Is a Mass Tort?
A mass tort is a civil action involving numerous plaintiffs injured by the same product, conduct, or corporate decision. Unlike a class action, each plaintiff maintains an individual claim with damages specific to their injury.
Mass tort litigation frequently arises from:
-
Defective pharmaceuticals
-
Dangerous medical devices
-
Toxic exposure
-
Large-scale consumer product defects
-
Corporate misconduct affecting public safety
These cases are often consolidated in federal or state courts for coordinated pretrial proceedings.
Complex Litigation
Complex litigation refers to cases involving:
-
Multiple parties
-
Extensive expert testimony
-
Large volumes of technical evidence
-
Significant financial stakes
-
Multi-jurisdictional proceedings
Southern Med Law handles litigation requiring substantial preparation, expert coordination, and trial strategy.
Leadership and Coordination
Mass tort litigation often involves plaintiffs’ leadership committees responsible for managing discovery, strategy, and coordination across jurisdictions.
Participation at the leadership level reflects experience in handling technically demanding and procedurally complex cases.
