Description
Mass Torts in the United States Courtney E Ward-Reichard ISBN 9781641056656
The term “mass torts” encompasses a wide range of cases—from airplane accidents injuring multiple individuals at once to long-term asbestos exposure claims spanning decades. This book serves as a practical guide for attorneys handling mass tort cases, offering insights relevant to both seasoned practitioners and those new to this complex area of law.
Beginning with a concise history of mass tort litigation, the book then explores each stage of a case, including preliminary considerations such as jurisdiction and venue, theories of liability and defenses, and the court mechanisms used to manage large-scale litigation, such as class actions and multidistrict litigation. Additional chapters cover discovery, the use of expert witnesses, and strategies for settlement—all tailored to the unique challenges of mass tort practice.
Finally, the book examines issues that arise specifically in mass tort litigation, providing readers with a comprehensive and practical roadmap for navigating this demanding and multifaceted field.
