Frequently Asked Questions

What is Torts and Actions?
Torts and Actions is a free informational site covering mass tort and injury litigation — active cases, settlement news, recalls, and the legal concepts behind them, written for non-lawyers.
Is this legal advice?
No. Torts and Actions is an informational publisher, not a law firm or legal service. Nothing on this site is legal advice, and reading it does not create an attorney-client relationship. Consult a licensed attorney about your own situation.
Is it free to read?
Yes. Every page is free, with no paywall and no signup required.
Do you take cases or refer me to a lawyer?
No. We do not accept cases, sign clients, or operate as a lead generator. We describe litigation; choosing counsel is entirely up to you.
How do I know if I qualify for a case?
Eligibility is defined by the court or settlement administrator, not by us. We summarize the stated criteria and link the official source where one is public, but only the administrator or an attorney can tell you whether you qualify.
How do you make money?
The site is supported by display advertising. Advertising does not influence which cases we cover or how we describe them.
How do I report an error?
Email [email protected] with the page link and the specific claim you believe is wrong. Corrections are posted on the page with the date of the change.
