Class Actions &
Multi-District Litigation
Class actions are a legal toll that allows a group of people with similar claims against a common defendant or entity to collectively pursue thair case as a single group or a “class” rather than as individual lawsuits. This approach empowers individuals who may have suffered harm, whether it is due to defective products, corporate wrongdoing, or other legal violations, to combine their resources and strengthen their legal position. The attorneys at Duffy & Young know that class actions can be a powerful tool for holding wrongdoers accountable and providing legal remedies to a broader range of people. Trust us to protect your rights and interests.
Multidistrict litigation (MDL) is a legal process that consolidates similar cases filed in federal courts across the country before a single judge for pretrial proceedings. This procedure is typically used when numerous individuals have alleged similar injuries or damages due to a common defendant. MDL streamlines the legal process by centralizing discovery, evidence gathering and initial hearings, allowing for efficient handling of large-scale litigation.
Whether you are part of an MDL, are considering filing a claim in an MDL, or need South Carolina counsel in an MDL, Duffy & Young has the experience to assist you with your claim.
