When a defective product, dangerous chemical, or widespread corporate negligence injures many people, those victims may have the right to join a mass tort action. Mass torts allow injured individuals to pursue compensation collectively while still maintaining their individual cases — unlike class action lawsuits, where all plaintiffs share a single recovery.

South Texas residents have been affected by some of the most significant mass tort lawsuits in recent history. Anderson Alexander PLLC helps qualifying victims evaluate whether they have a mass tort claim and fight for fair compensation. Our Super Lawyers rated attorneys handle these cases on a contingency basis — no fee unless we win.

Roundup Weedkiller and Glyphosate Claims

Bayer (formerly Monsanto) has faced tens of thousands of lawsuits from individuals who allege that exposure to Roundup weedkiller caused non-Hodgkin lymphoma and other cancers. Agricultural workers, landscapers, and farmers in South Texas have been particularly at risk due to heavy agricultural activity in the region. If you or a loved one developed cancer after regular Roundup exposure, you may qualify for significant compensation.

Camp Lejeune Water Contamination Claims

Military veterans and their families who lived or worked at Camp Lejeune between 1953 and 1987 were exposed to contaminated drinking water containing benzene, TCE, and other toxic chemicals. The Camp Lejeune Justice Act of 2022 opened the door for victims to file federal claims for compensation. South Texas has a large veteran population, and many may qualify for Camp Lejeune compensation.

Qualifying conditions include bladder cancer, kidney cancer, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, leukemia, Parkinson's disease, and other serious illnesses linked to the contaminated water. If you or a family member served at Camp Lejeune during that time period and developed one of these conditions, you may have a claim.

Other Mass Tort Claims Affecting South Texas Residents

South Texas's energy sector makes oil field chemical exposure claims particularly relevant in our region. Workers exposed to PFAS (forever chemicals), benzene, silica dust, or other toxic industrial chemicals in oil and gas operations may qualify for mass tort compensation. We also evaluate claims involving defective medical devices, dangerous pharmaceutical drugs, and other product liability cases.

Mass tort cases are complex and time-sensitive. Deadlines for filing claims vary by lawsuit and can be strict. The sooner you contact an attorney, the better your chances of qualifying and maximizing your recovery.
