Mass Tort Claim
Legal Funding.
When your individual claim is part of larger litigation, the process can take time. FCA may review qualifying represented mass tort claims for case-based legal funding while the matter is pending.
FCA evaluates each claimant's funding request individually and coordinates directly with counsel. Being part of a mass tort does not automatically qualify a claimant for funding.
Approval, amount, cost, terms and availability depend on the individual claim and jurisdiction.

Quick Answer
What is mass tort claim funding?
Mass tort claim funding is case-based legal funding that may be available to qualifying represented claimants with individual civil claims connected to litigation involving similar alleged injuries, products, exposures or events.
A mass tort is not automatically the same as a class action. Mass tort litigation may coordinate similar claims while preserving individual issues. Your attorney determines the legal structure; FCA evaluates the funding request.
