Class Actions
National Class Action Lawyers in Indiana
A class action is a lawsuit brought by one or more claimants as representatives for an entire group of claimants who have been affected by a common violation, but who do not need to participate in the lawsuit in order to be awarded a recovery. This process creates a method for addressing relatively small claims that might otherwise be too costly to litigate on an individual basis.
Class action cases can be difficult and expensive to prosecute. Class action lawyers must be experienced with complex litigation and class action certification, notice, and settlement procedures. Large corporate defendants can put up formidable opposition in cases involving thousands of employees or consumer claimants.
At Price Waicukauski & Riley, LLC, our class action lawyers have represented plaintiff classes in numerous class action lawsuits. Among the major class action lawsuits we have handled are:
