what’s a class action?
In a “class action” lawsuit, a group of people who have suffered damages as a result of consumer or securities fraud, or due to corporate misconduct, are able to sue the allegedly responsible organization as a group. Successful class actions have been brought by investors given false information to convince them to make an investment, which turned out to be bogus. Shareholders of companies in which accounting frauds have been committed, with corporate funds misappropriated by officers, have also been successful in class actions to recover the resulting financial losses.
Class actions are also seen in cases where a group of individuals have suffered the same or similar injuries as a result of their use of defective products, including pharmaceutical drugs, motor vehicles and medical devices, and other consumer products.
Why are class actions important?
The ability to bring class actions is a valuable tool for plaintiffs within the Canadian legal system. It’s your way to challenge large corporations in a fair and efficient way; an action which would be very difficult for an individual to bring alone becomes possible. Class actions enable consumers to go up against large corporations. Numerous parties’ claims are grouped together against a common defendant who has allegedly harmed the group. Helpforme not only has the resources to see these often lengthy proceedings through, regularly reporting to class members, but also acts for plaintiffs only—we’re on your side.
