If you believe that DePuy Orthopedics hip replacement recall affects you, you may wonder if you should join one of the class action lawsuits against DePuy or seek your own hip replacement lawyer to bring your own individual lawsuit. It’s a good question.

In a class action, a group of plaintiffs joins forces to bring a single legal action against a defendant. Class actions are especially attractive in product liability cases. They have certain advantages:

They are efficient and save money because there is just one case to prepare. They are fair. If a defendant has limited resources or insurance, a class action ensures that all plaintiffs get a share of any compensation granted. They can change the behavior of a defendant. A large number of people who experienced harm individually may want to bring a claim for the common good. They allow stronger cases to carry weaker ones. Often, plaintiffs are more likely to succeed as a group.
