Class Action Litigation

A class action suit begins when consumers join in a lawsuit that would be too small to litigate alone. For example, a defective product bought by multiple consumers can become a class action litigation that will award damages to all consumers affected. This type of litigation makes the legal system more efficient, allowing the courts to handle similar claims at one time.

Common Class Action Litigation

There are certain situations in which class action suits are an appropriate means of litigation. If you have experienced any of the following situations, the negligent company may owe your compensation from a class action lawsuit:

  • Defective products
  • Mass data breaches
  • False advertising
  • Medical drug dangers
  • Employment suits
  • Product safety concerns
  • Deceptive or unfair practices

Class action suits can be successful in awarding damages due to defects or safety issues. They can also hold companies responsible for negligent actions to ensure similar instances do not occur in the future.

Class Action Suit Against Le Cordon Bleu

In a well-publicized case, culinary school Le Cordon Bleu was subject to a class action suit involving 2,200 former students. The for-profit school allegedly engaged in false advertising of its prestigious training status. The students had claimed the school provided low-quality materials and training that was far from prestigious. The parent company, Career Education Corporation, had also reached a secret deal with lender Sallie Mae to overcharge students by 44%, so they could both make heavy profits.

The result of this class action litigation resulted in settlements to pay back 44% of its students’ tuition amounts. Without the establishment of a class action litigation, students would have had a difficult time proving their case.
