Class action suits are a kind of lawsuit where one case
can handle the legal claims of hundreds or even thousands of people against one
defendant. This is done by having a one
or maybe a few plaintiffs file their claim as representatives of an entire
group of injured people. Class action
cases are often used in product liability or pharmaceutical cases where there
can be many injured parties. Most often,
these cases end with a settlement or legal judgment. At that point, lawyers will do a search for
members of the class where they can choose to join the class and get awarded
through the class action case or not join the class and retain their right to
sue the defendant later on. Because of
the number of injured parties that can be in a class action case, the awards
can be quite high in total, but each individual plaintiffs may get less in
their award.
