Our history is rife with examples of corporations and businesses taking advantage of their employees, carelessly exposing them to harmful substances, poor working conditions, and products with dangerous side effects.

Types of Class-actions

Louisiana Class Action Lawsuits

Class actions are unique legal mechanisms that protect groups of people from nefarious business practices and dangerous products. A class-action lawsuit can help hold the responsible party accountable. These types of cases generally assist with larger groups of people who have been victimized but whose damages do not add up to a significant amount. These groups of people can team up to form a larger group of victims, which improves their chances of receiving compensation.

What Kinds of Class Action Lawsuits Are There in Louisiana?

A class-action lawsuit is a claim filed on behalf of a group of people who were harmed because of a specific situation they were put in or a product they were exposed to, such as becoming ill from asbestos exposure on job sites.

Class action lawsuits can be powerful agents of needed change in company policies, especially with corporations that regularly put their employees at risk. Mass Torts are processed differently and are primarily lawsuits brought by a large group of people who were harmed on a larger scale, such as an oil spill or defective medication.
