Emerging Trends in Mass Tort Litigation
The landscape of mass tort litigation is constantly evolving, driven by changes in technology, scientific advancements, and societal attitudes towards corporate accountability and consumer protection. Emerging trends such as multidistrict litigation (MDL), virtual trials, and the use of data analytics are reshaping the way mass tort cases are litigated and resolved.
Challenges and Opportunities for Plaintiffs
While recent developments in mass tort litigation have provided new opportunities for plaintiffs to seek justice and compensation, they have also presented challenges and hurdles that must be navigated effectively.
