Samsung, a household name in electronics, ventured into kitchen appliances with the same innovative approach that made its smartphones a global success. Some of the refrigerator just seem reallly impressive.  And as awful as your ice maker may be, Samsung has done some amazing things in the technology space. So many people, including probably you, were pretty excited.

Samsung refrigerators quickly became a top choice for consumers, especially the French door models equipped with sleek, built-in ice makers.

If you or a loved one experienced pain, discomfort, or complications after receiving a BioZorb implant following breast cancer surgery, you are not alone. Across the United States, patients are taking legal action to hold the manufacturer, Hologic, accountable for the harm caused by this device.

The BioZorb implant, manufactured by Hologic, Inc., is a class II medical device first cleared by the FDA in 2012 under the 510(k) process. It is an implantable radiographic marker composed of a bioabsorbable material (polylactic acid) and six titanium radiopaque clips, which are designed to mark soft tissue sites during radiation therapy following breast cancer surgery. The device is intended to provide a three-dimensional marker for more precise radiation targeting while gradually dissolving in the body over time.

BioZorb works. But it has also been linked to several complications, including prolonged pain, discomfort, infection, device migration, and non-absorption. Many patients have reported the formation of hardened masses, scar tissue, and additional injuries at the implant site. The device has also been associated with increased radiation exposure and adverse reactions requiring further surgeries for removal.

A Tom’s Toothpaste class action lawsuit has been filed against Colgate-Palmolive Co. and Tom’s of Maine, Inc., alleging that their Tom’s Natural Kids Toothpaste contains unsafe levels of toxic heavy metals, specifically lead and arsenic.

The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York by Douglas White on behalf of similarly affected consumers, accuses the manufacturers of deceptively marketing the toothpaste as safe for children while omitting critical information about contamination risks.

We are learning more about more about the presence of heavy metals in consumer products, particularly those targeted at children. Lawsuits are following because many of these companies knew or should have known about the presence of toxic metals in their products companies failed to warn consumers or work to eliminate the toxic metals.  The focus before this has been on toxic metals in baby food.  Now, parents have to worry about tooth paste contributing to brain injuries.

Most class action lawyers will tell you 2024 was underwhelming.  The 3M earplug settlement was a disappointment.  Johnson & Johnson’s attempt to push talc claims into a third  bankruptcy did not catalyze a significant settlement. Hernia mesh has mostly settled but few plaintiffs have seen a settlement check.

In 2025, we expect more settlements in mass torts.  Roundup, Paraquat, and AFFF are all ripe for settlement in 2025.  Let’s talk about what is out there. Continue Reading

Class action lawsuits are powerful legal tools that enable large groups of individuals to join forces in holding corporations or other large entities accountable for similar grievances. These cases often result in substantial settlements or judgments, with defendants agreeing to pay compensation to affected class members.

But here is the thing people do not realize…not all settlement funds are distributed to claimants. A significant portion of these funds can go unclaimed, creating a unique issue in class action litigation. The handling of unclaimed class action settlement money varies. But it usually follows a few well-established paths.

Unclaimed money from class action settlements in 2025 remains an often-overlooked resource, with billions of dollars left on the table due to unclaimed funds. For many claimants, the process of accessing their share can be confusing or cumbersome, leading to missed opportunities. And people are just lazy.

In 2021, the surgical implant manufacturer Exactech announced a recall of all its Optetrak® implant systems used in total knee replacement surgeries since 2004. The recall came after the company discovered that a problem with the product packaging was causing the polyethylene insert component in the Optetrak implants to degrade not function properly. This defect is causing the Optetrak knee implant systems to prematurely fail which ultimately requires patients to undergo additional revision surgery.

Individuals who had the Exactech Optetrak system implanted and suffered premature failure due to this defect can file a product liability lawsuit against Exactech and potentially recover financial compensation for their pain and medical bills. Our firm is currently accepting Optetrak implant failure cases from patients who suffered a premature failure to their knee replacement implant and had to undergo revision surgery.
