Types of Class Action Lawsuits

When a company breaks its promise about its goods and services, that may give rise to a legitimate claim for a class action lawsuit. Common examples of class action lawsuits involve injury or damage caused by:

  • Pharmaceutical drugs
  • Motor vehicles
  • Medical devices
  • Home appliances
  • Toys

Consumer fraud, security fraud, unethical employment practices, purchase abuse, charging for services never provided, and other misconduct may also be cause for a class action lawsuit.

Having a negative experience with a product or service is frustrating and overwhelming, and may make a person feel hopeless. However, reimbursement from businesses is possible regardless of how large or small the company is. Individuals who sustained damages or injury by a person or product, and think it may have happened to others, should contact a class action attorney.

Class Action to Recover Cellular Phone Fee

$48 million recovery for a statewide Illinois class of businesses and individuals who paid a municipal infrastructure maintenance fee on their cellular phone bills. Through litigation, the Illinois Supreme Court declared the fee to be unconstitutional, and we obtained refunds for cell phone customers from the Illinois municipalities that imposed the fee.
