Where to File in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania AFFF cases can be filed in the court of common pleas of the county where the plaintiff resides or where the exposure occurred. The Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas has an established mass tort program with extensive experience in toxic tort litigation. Bucks County and Montgomery County courts handle a high volume of PFAS-related cases due to the NAS Willow Grove and NAWC Warminster contamination. Federal claims are consolidated in MDL 2873 in D.S.C.
