Aren't most drug and products liability lawsuits just class action lawsuits where the plaintiff receives very little money?

No, Elmiron vision cases will not become class action lawsuits. Elmiron lawsuit claims are likely to be consolidated as a national MDL, or Multi-District Litigation, where a specific settlement is factored for each plaintiff based on the specific injuries and damages incurred by each plaintiff. We have reason to believe that successful Elmiron eye lawsuit claims will yield significant compensation for damages. This process increases the efficiency of processing vast numbers of similar cases and builds consumer leverage against a large multinational corporation such as J&J. Elmiron Eye Lawsuit FAQ

We're not the type of people who sue; do we really need to file a lawsuit?

If a member of your family suffered a serious injury or health problem as a result of a defective product or dangerous drug, long-term, or even lifelong, medical care may be required. This could be incredibly expensive and since medical costs are continually rising may be largely unknown at the time of settlement or trial. If a member of your family died due to a defective product or dangerous drug, no amount of money can undo that wrong. It is our fervent hope that every defective product, drug or other medication lawsuit we file can serve to make the manufacturer take note of the loss and pain its product has caused. When that fails to make a company take action in the form of a product recall, greater warnings about its use and ultimately making safer products, we rely on their profit motivation to make them do the right thing. Unfortunately, in all too many cases it is only the fear of lawsuits and large settlements and verdicts that makes a company become a better corporate citizen.
