This page discusses injury claims related to bicep injuries resulting from car accidents and other incidents. Our legal team examines the causes of these injuries and explores the typical compensation amounts awarded by juries or settled for torn bicep injuries.

About Bicep Tear Injuries

The biceps are muscles located on the front of the upper arm responsible for bending the forearm at the elbow. The bicep is connected to bones by three tendons. One tendon extends from the shoulder’s outer side, attaching the bicep to the top of the shoulder socket. A second tendon secures the bicep to the inner side of the shoulder socket on the shoulder blade (scapula). Finally, a third tendon links the bicep to the lower arm bone (radius) at the elbow.

Victims who suffer catastrophic injuries from auto accidents, defective products, medical malpractice, or other types of negligence are legally entitled to monetary compensation in a catastrophic injury lawsuit. In this post, we will explain what is considered a catastrophic injury and look at how victims can obtain settlement compensation by bringing a successful catastrophic injury lawsuit.

What is a Catastrophic Injury or Illness?

The term “catastrophic injury” is a phase frequently used in the field of personal injury and workers comp law to refer to the most serious types of physical injuries and diseases. A catastrophic injury is generally defined as any physical injury, disease or illness that can reasonably be expected to leave someone incapacitated and unable to work for a prolonged time period or permanently.

Seventy percent of civil cases in federal court are in an MDL in 2024.  Yet few people understand what an MDL is.

Multidistrict litigation, called an MDL, is a special legal procedure used in mass tort cases to streamline the handling of large and complex cases.  An MDL is a “sort of” class action lawsuit.  It is a class action in that the cases are all brought together under one judge for pretrial discovery.

However, typically, after a few bellwether trials of individual plaintiffs, the cases are sent back to their local jurisdiction for trial if a settlement is not reached. The hope of the MDL process is that the parties can figure out the value of the claims so a global settlement can be reached with most of the plaintiffs.

The idea of an MDL was born in 1968 when lawmakers created the MDL system as a way to speed up and coordinate complex litigation that was filed in multiple federal judicial districts. MDLs are utilized in scenarios where a single defendant or group of defendants commit a single tort or does a single act that affects a large group of people. When all of those individual people then go to sue the defendant, it makes more sense to consolidate their cases. This streamlines the process and avoids different rulings regarding similar aspects of the case.

Similac recall lawsuits are being filed around the country after Abbott Laboratories announced a recall of all Similac, Alimentum, and EleCare powdered infant formula products manufactured at the company’s plant in Sturgis, Michigan. Similac PM 60/40 has now also been recalled after a baby exposed to this powdered baby formula died.

When the Similac recall was announced, our attorneys were under the impression there would be a handful of severe injury and wrongful death cases from this recall.

We were wrong. While 2024 has seen new cases mostly die out, our law firm received hundreds of calls, many of which are from parents whose children have suffered severe injury or death from food poisoning from Similac.  It is an awful thing that happened, and it exacerbated a baby formula shortage that also caused a lot of pain.  The government and Abbott are working now to make sure it never happens again. In the meantime, a large number of victims have viable claims for compensation.

This is the latest update on the Taxotere class action (MDL) lawsuits.

Where are we now in the Taxotere hair loss lawsuits?  There have been two bellwether trials.  One before the pandemic in 2019 and one last year.  Both have ended in a defeat for plaintiffs.

So things are not good with the Taxotere lawsuits at this stage.  Do some mass tort lawsuits often begin with losses and then the tide turns and plaintiffs start winning and the defendant offers fair settlement amounts?  Yes.  100%.  But let’s not pretend there are many silver linings when you lose two lawsuits in a row.
