Although the second round of the settlement program is in the works, it's not clear when the compensation payments will start to be issued to the plaintiffs involved. However, Legal-Bay experts close to the litigation believe most payments will not come until late 2015 or beyond, depending on liens in each individual case. Additionally, the exact settlement agreement terms are still unknown at this time, however, legal experts expect the terms to be similar to those of the first ASR settlement. In the first round of the US ASR Hip Settlement Program, plaintiffs involved received settlement awards of approximately $250K.

Chris Janish, CEO, commented on the recent announcement of the enrollment deadline, "We are pleased to see that J&J has made a concerted effort with the ASR litigation, which was over a recalled product, to compensate plaintiffs rather quickly. However, with funds not expected for many months, we remain committed to assisting DePuy plaintiffs with getting a settlement advance now if they need it."
