About Collective Claim

Collective Claim is an independent legal-information publisher and a mass tort marketing and inquiry service. We do two things:

1. We publish. Sourced, plain-language writing about litigation and regulation in the United States: mass torts, product liability, pharmaceutical and medical device cases, environmental exposure claims, class actions, and the procedure that holds them together.
2. We connect. If you tell us what happened to you, we pass your inquiry to law firms that handle mass tort and related claims and may be able to review it. We are not a law firm, we do not give legal advice, and we do not review claims ourselves.

No inquiry is a case, and sending one does not create an attorney-client relationship or entitle anyone to compensation. Whether a claim exists, what it is worth and what to file are questions only a licensed lawyer in the relevant state can answer. The disclaimer sets out the limits, and the contact page explains exactly what happens after you send an inquiry.

What we publish

Each article answers a question that has a documented answer: what a regulator did and when, what a court has ruled, what a complaint alleges, what a settlement notice says, how a procedural rule works. Where the record is thin or contested, the article says so rather than filling the gap.

Three editorial rules do most of the work:

1. Primary sources first. FDA safety communications and label changes, CPSC recalls, EPA determinations, court dockets and opinions, JPML orders, statutes, and official settlement administration notices. Secondary reporting is used for context and labelled as secondary.
2. The legal status of every material statement is named. An allegation is described as an allegation. A verdict, a settlement, a regulatory finding and a procedural order are described as what each one is, with dates and the deciding body.
3. No promises. No article tells a reader they qualify for anything, that they are entitled to a figure, or that any outcome will follow from reading it.

How articles are produced

Articles are drafted with AI assistance, then reviewed and edited by our editorial desk before publication. Sources are fetched and checked during drafting. Claims about procedural status are tied to the record; we do not assert causation, eligibility or outcome. We do not claim that a doctor, nurse or lawyer reviewed an article unless that review actually happened, and if it does, the reviewer is named with their qualifications on the article itself.

This is a public statement of method, not a claim of authority. If you find something we got wrong, the corrections policy sets out how to tell us and what we will do.

How the publication is run

Collective Claim runs as a static site: pre-rendered HTML, one stylesheet, no advertising scripts, no tracking cookies and no third-party embeds. That choice is deliberate. It keeps pages fast, it keeps readers unprofiled, and it removes a class of supply-chain risk that comes with injected ad or analytics code.
