O’Toole Scrivo’s attorneys have defended thousands of toxic and mass tort cases. As a result, our attorneys are thoroughly proficient in handling the scientific and medical issues at the heart of these claims. Our collective years of experience have resulted in an impressive record of success in achieving optimal client outcomes in mass tort matters, including asbestos, benzene, vermiculite, and the rapidly expanding industrial and cosmetic talc litigation. Our team is assisted by a highly professional staff and equipped with the technical capabilities and experience necessary to efficiently manage a high volume of cases and coordinate mass tort matters nationally.

As a leader in mass tort matters across New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania, we bring extensive experience to the table when defending these types of claims. Our attorneys routinely litigate complex and vigorously contested issues facing product manufacturers and property owners, working collaboratively with our clients to identify and solve problems efficiently.

Our reputation has led to long-running partnerships with national coordinating counsel and trial firms, a testament to our understanding of the vital role that local counsel plays in ensuring clients are given the best representation from the case’s inception to trial. Hired by Fortune 500 companies to handle their mass tort litigation in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania, we bring a wealth of experience and a strong network to every case we handle.

We are well versed in what can be a maze of medical and scientific issues, such as causation, epidemiology, genetics, industrial hygiene, risk assessment, and toxicology. Our attorneys use this knowledge and our deep bench of well-qualified and respected practitioners to defend our clients across a diverse landscape. We have lectured on these issues and topics, ranging from expert issues to jurisdictional trends, in various settings nationwide. Our excellent reputation among our colleagues on the defense and plaintiff sides has earned the respect of judges across several jurisdictions.

Our attorneys are prepared to assist our clients in facing the liability issues that arise in mass tort litigation. We are ready to challenge a plaintiff’s allegations, experts, and credibility at all litigation points. We are equally prepared to explore resolution and pursue trial. We have the knowledge, litigation experience, staff, and attorneys to achieve the best possible results for our clients.
