Mass Torts
Where there is an accident that injures a large number of people we refer to that as a mass tort. Examples of these are a plane crash, a train derailment, a deck collapsing or a ship sinking. In these types of catastrphic accidents a large number of lawsuits can result. In order to manage these complex lawsuits the courts have developed special rules, and experienced personal injury lawyers at the Blackman Legal Group are familiar with the intricacies of these types of cases.
Our experience in mass disasters includes representing victims from airplance crashes, train derailments and deck collapses.
Train derailments and train crashes are more common than most people would expect, with more than 2,000 occuring in the Unites States every year. The most recent tragedy happened in California outside Los Angeles when a MetroLink commuter train ran head on into a freight train coming in the opposite direction on the same track resulting in many fatalities and hundreds of serious injuries.
