Types of Class Action Lawsuits

Plaintiffs typically file a class action lawsuit when many different people have suffered some sort of loss due to the actions of a large organization.  This organization is usually a corporation, but government entities are also common defendants.  Most class action lawsuits fall in one of the following broad categories:

• Antitrust Lawsuits: Class action lawsuits filed against companies that illegally overcharge customers for various products or services.  This practice can include price fixing and other collaboration to drive up prices or eliminate competition.
• Consumer Fraud Lawsuits: This includes illegal charges on bills for services, illegal late fees, or any other action that does not adhere to standard consumer protection laws.  This is often a form of maintenance and service agreement fraud, internet service provider fraud, telephone products fraud, or hidden bank charges.
• Product Liability Claims: When a company releases an unsafe product, victims injured by that product often band together to file a class action lawsuit against that product’s manufacturer.  The recent class action lawsuit against Toyota for faulty accelerators is an example of this type of lawsuit.
• Insurance Company Fraud: There are many different types of insurance fraud, from illegal charges to denied claims.  In most cases, insurance companies that act in bad faith do so with many different clients.  Those clients can file a class action lawsuit against the insurance company to receive compensation.

While these are perhaps the most common types of class action lawsuit, keep in mind that any time an organization’s actions harm many different people, there is the potential for a powerful class action lawsuit.
