Class Action and Mass Tort Representation in Savannah, Georgia
Franklin Law evaluates complex claims involving multiple people harmed by the same defendant or similar conduct.

Franklin Law handles complex claims involving defective products and vehicles. If a dangerous or defective product caused your injuries, our representation may include investigating the manufacturer, identifying responsible parties, reviewing evidence, and pursuing a product liability claim through negotiations or litigation.

How Franklin Law Handles Your Case
Complex litigation involves many moving parts. Franklin Law keeps the process focused on your claim, your evidence, and the legal options available based on your unique circumstances.
Step 1 — Free Case Evaluation
Your case starts with a review of what happened, the company or product involved, your injuries or losses, and any documents you already have. This initial evaluation gives you a clearer picture of the path forward.
Step 2 — Investigation & Case Building
We examine the available evidence and circumstances surrounding the alleged harm. The investigation also helps determine whether an individual claim, class action, mass tort, or another legal approach is most effective.
Step 3 — Filing & Litigation
If there are grounds to proceed, we’ll develop an evidence-based legal strategy and formally pursue your claim. Class action lawyers manage the legal filings, evidence, negotiations, and other litigation requirements.
Step 4 — Resolution & Recovery
Class actions and mass torts may resolve through settlement or litigation. We’ll pursue an appropriate resolution based on the facts of the case and keep you informed about significant developments and decisions.
Who We Represent — Types of Class Action & Mass Tort Cases
Franklin Law represents victims harmed by defective products, auto defects, and other product-related wrongdoing. A consumer class action lawyer or mass tort lawyer may evaluate whether similar harm affecting multiple people supports coordinated legal action.
These cases may involve:
Defective products: Claims involving unsafe or defective consumer products that cause injuries.
Auto defects: Claims involving defective vehicles or components that contribute to crashes, injuries, or other harm.
Serious and fatal injuries: When widespread product-related wrongdoing results in catastrophic or fatal injuries, additional legal claims may apply. Families dealing with a fatal injury can also review their options with a wrongful death lawyer.
Not every injury involving a company or product belongs in group litigation. If your circumstances support an individual claim instead, we’ll help you evaluate your personal injury claim options.
