Mass Torts

Advanced modeling and analysis

Bates White’s Mass Torts practice has been at the forefront of mass tort modeling, analysis, and strategic advisory work for more than 25 years. Through hundreds of successful engagements, we have developed and continually refined proprietary modeling tools, comprehensive databases, and advanced analytical techniques recognized as leading the market to help clients make informed decisions on litigation-related issues. We have led the way in recognizing how the economics of litigation interacts with the claim-generation process to better forecast both tort costs and liabilities.
