Frequently Asked Questions About Lawsuits

A drug or device lawsuit gives injured consumers a way to get compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses, and to hold drug and medical device companies accountable when their products cause harm.
After you file a lawsuit, your attorney will handle most of the legal work and keep you informed about what comes next. You may need to provide medical records, other documents or testimony about your injury. Your attorney will gather evidence, build your case and negotiate with the company’s lawyers. Lawsuits can take months or even years to resolve, depending on the case.
Look for an attorney or law firm with experience handling drug and medical device lawsuits like yours. Mass tort cases can be complex and require significant time and resources, so it’s important to choose a lawyer who understands your type of case and has the resources to handle it. Ask about the firm’s experience, who will handle your case and what you can expect throughout the process.
In most drug and device lawsuits, you do not pay your attorney upfront. These cases are typically handled on a contingency fee basis, which means the attorney is paid only if you recover money. Your lawyer may also cover case expenses, such as filing fees and expert costs, and recover those costs from the settlement or award. The exact fee and expenses can vary, so ask your attorney to explain them before you agree to representation.
A class action is one lawsuit brought on behalf of a group of people with similar claims. In an MDL, people file their own individual lawsuits, but similar cases are brought together in one federal court to make the pretrial process more efficient. Most drug and medical device mass torts are handled through MDLs rather than class actions, and each person’s injuries and losses can be considered individually.
The payout amount can depend on factors such as your injury, medical treatment, how the injury has affected your life, the product involved and the specific facts of your case. In a multidistrict litigation, each person’s claim is generally evaluated based on their individual injuries and losses.
