In terms of the number of people participating and the time and expense required to litigate, products liability cases are the “biggest” personal injury cases that can be litigated. Products liability cases tend to be “big” because one product distributed by a manufacturer may be consumed by thousands of people and, if that product is defective, some or all of those people may be injured. In response, all of those people file claims against the company and the company is required to litigate the safety and suitability of the product over and over again.

Over the course of repetitious litigations pertaining to the same product, the company and its lawyers will become very adept and efficient at defending their product and defeating any one individual Plaintiff’s claim. Increasingly, Defendants are being allowed to join all prospective Plaintiffs into one federal class action lawsuit or multi-district litigation which may affect the rights of Plaintiffs who have not even filed a lawsuit. Because of the money at stake in such a litigation (especially if the producer believes that the product is still economically viable), companies and manufacturers tend to invest vast resources into defending such suits. Such suits will also often turn on very specific and technical questions of design, testing, marketing, and/or federal regulatory compliance, which can quickly overwhelm the unprepared Plaintiff’s attorney.
