The Process of Filing a Class Action Lawsuit
Initiating a class action lawsuit involves key steps to protect the rights of all involved. First, a lead plaintiff must come forward to file the lawsuit, representing the group. This plaintiff stands as the primary representative of the affected individuals.
After filing, the court must certify the class, determining that the claims are similar and that a class action is the best solution. During certification, the court reviews the commonality of the claims and the adequacy of the lead plaintiff and their legal counsel.
Once certified, the discovery phase begins, allowing plaintiffs and the defendant to gather and exchange relevant information and evidence. This stage is crucial for building a strong case. Negotiations and settlements often occur during this phase, with many cases resolving without a trial. If no settlement is reached, the case goes to trial, where our experienced legal team is ready to fight for our clients’ rights.
