Class action questions, answered

What is a class action?

A class action lets one or a few people sue on behalf of a large group harmed in the same way, such as every policyholder underpaid under the same insurance practice. A court must certify the class, and one judgment or settlement then resolves everyone's claims. It makes cases practical when each person's loss is too small to bring alone.

Does it cost anything to be a class member?

No. Class members do not pay anything up front. Class counsel are paid only if the case succeeds, through a fee the court must approve, usually out of the recovery.

My car was totaled. Did my insurer owe me taxes and fees?

It depends on your state's law and your policy. Hall & Lampros's auto insurance class actions recovered more than $200 million, and several of them challenged insurers that left sales tax, title and registration fees, or Georgia title ad valorem tax out of total-loss payments. If your car was declared a total loss, a lawyer can review your settlement paperwork for free.

What is the difference between a class action and an FLSA collective action?

In a class action, everyone who fits the class definition is included unless they opt out. In a Fair Labor Standards Act collective action for unpaid wages, each worker must opt in by filing a written consent. Hall & Lampros handles both.

How long does a class action settlement take?

It varies. Many class actions take a year or more from filing to payment, and complex cases can take longer. After a settlement is reached, the court must review it, class members receive notice, and there are deadlines to object, opt out or file a claim before payments go out.

Should I opt out of a class settlement or stay in?

If you do nothing, you usually stay in the class and are bound by the settlement and its release of claims. Opting out keeps your right to sue separately, but you receive nothing from the settlement. Opt-out deadlines are strict, so read the notice carefully and talk to a lawyer if you are unsure.

How are class action settlement payments made?

It depends on the settlement. Class members may receive a check automatically, may need to submit a claim form by a deadline, or may receive a credit or other benefit. The notice explains which applies and how your share is calculated.

How do I find out if I can join a class action?

If you received a notice in the mail or by email, it explains your rights and deadlines. If you think a company treated many people the way it treated you, contact us. We investigate new class claims and list current investigations on our website.
