Class Actions

A class action is a lawsuit in which a large number of people who have been injured in the same way join together in a group (called “the class”) to sue the responsible company or organization. Class actions provide a useful mechanism for prosecuting the claims of many people whose injuries when added together are significant, but which individually would not be large enough to justify the expense of bringing separate lawsuits.

Class actions are often brought to address the following issues:

  • Antitrust violations, such as price fixing or unlawful monopolization
  • Breaches of contract or warranty
  • Breaches of fiduciary duty
  • Cybersecurity and invasions of privacy
  • Data breaches
  • Defective products, including automobiles, appliances, and other consumer goods
  • Employment issues, including discrimination, wage theft, and employee benefits
  • Environmental harms, toxic torts, and medical monitoring
  • False or deceptive advertising
  • Fraud and misrepresentation
  • Securities fraud
  • Wrongful billing and overcharging

The lawyers at Feldman Shepherd have obtained substantial verdicts and settlements in both state and federal courts, including a $6 million verdict against Kia Motors in a class action concerning a defective braking system. The verdict was affirmed by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court and ultimately led to Kia paying more than $10 million to class members. In another widely reported case, Feldman Shepherd recovered $3.5 million for a class of mental health patients who had been treated by an unlicensed doctor.
