What is a Class Action?

A class action is a lawsuit in which the claims of many people are decided in one judgment. It is a great way for individuals to pursue claims for damages, overcoming the sometimes limited value of individual damages. A class action allows individuals to act as a group and assert their rights to collective damages and compensation. People who could not afford to litigate on their own can join a class action and participate in any payment received.
