How to Apply for Class Action Lawsuits Online
- 1). Browse pending lawsuits and settlements online. Two of the major class action search databases are LawyersandSettlements.com and ClassActionWorld.com. Take note of the name and website of the settlement administrators listed in class action notices. Administrator websites usually list the existing class action lawsuits that are or have been administered by that settlement administrator. At the Synthroid Marketing Litigation Settlement website, you can find and review an actual class action notice.
- 2). Visit class action administrator websites. Class action settlement administrators handle notice and award distribution procedures. One such class action settlement administrator is AB Data.
- 3). Search cases by keyword, such as "Seroquel" lawsuits, or you can search by topic (e.g., drug class actions, consumer, business, financial class action lawsuits, etc.).
- 4). Peruse existing class action notices for qualifications and deadlines.
- 5). Review class member requirements and claim filing deadlines for each class action case that you qualify for.
- 6). File a claim in accordance with the class action guidelines and before expiration of the claim filing deadline to join a class action case. Generally, you do not need the services of an attorney if all you want to do is file a class member claim.
