Civil Litigation

Civil litigation is a broad category of litigation that refers to accessing the courts to settle a legal dispute between two or more parties that seek money damages, a declaration of the parties’ rights, or specific performance of a contract, as opposed to criminal sanctions. Depending on the type of dispute, a civil action may be filed in state or federal court. Some subcategories of civil litigation are contracts, employment law, personal injury, real estate law, environmental law, and class actions.

Class Actions

A class action is a type of civil lawsuit that allows numerous persons, usually at least forty, who have suffered a similar harm to join together and file a lawsuit. The lawsuit is filed by a lead plaintiff on behalf of a larger group or “class.” Although some cases are brought by multiple lead plaintiffs, only one lead plaintiff is necessary. Class actions provide a means for a large number of persons who have suffered a relatively small amount of financial damage to seek compensation, often from large corporations. Once the court “certifies” the case as a class action, the case proceeds on a class-wide basis and all class members may benefit from the outcome without having to pay to hire their own counsel. Our firm has filed more than 150 class actions, including ones under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) related to unsolicited faxes, robocalls, spam text messages. We have also filed more than 20 class actions related to mortgage transactions.
