Choosing the right attorney for your mass tort case can significantly impact your outcome. Here's what to consider when making this important decision.
Experience Matters
Look for a firm with:
- Proven track record in mass tort litigation
- Experience with cases similar to yours
- Resources to handle complex, long-term cases
- Knowledge of the specific product or drug involved
Questions to Ask
About Their Experience:
- How many similar cases have you handled?
- What were the outcomes?
- How long have you been practicing mass tort law?
About Your Case:
- Do you think I have a valid claim?
- What is the likely timeline?
- What evidence will you need from me?
About Costs:
- Do you work on contingency?
- What percentage do you charge?
- Are there any upfront costs?
Red Flags to Avoid
Be cautious of attorneys who:
- Guarantee specific outcomes
- Pressure you to sign immediately
- Have no experience in your type of case
- Won't provide references
- Seem more interested in volume than individual attention
The Importance of Resources
Mass tort cases require significant investment in:
- Medical experts
- Scientific research
- Document review
- Travel and depositions
- Trial preparation
Smaller firms may lack the resources to properly pursue your case.
Communication Is Key
Your attorney should:
- Return calls promptly
- Explain legal concepts clearly
- Keep you updated on case progress
- Be accessible when you have questions
- Treat you with respect and empathy
