Mass Torts Subcommittee

The Mass Torts Subcommittee is charged with providing information regarding mass torts (i.e., involving multiple claims from a common exposure, such as asbestos) to public policymakers and the media as needed. This information might include data summaries and discussion of trends to size the issue, or descriptions of historical litigation or other issues that might cause consideration of a change in public policy.
