Illinois permits class actions when four requirements are met: many people share similar claims, common questions predominate, the representative will fairly protect the group, and a class action is the appropriate way to resolve the dispute. A judgment in a certified class will bind all members who do not opt out, and any settlement or dismissal will require court approval to protect the group’s interests. An Illinois class action lawsuits attorney with Vargas Gonzalez Delombard will explain how those rules apply to your situation and will map the path forward in plain English. We’re ready to handle all of the legal challenges and help you achieve the best possible outcome.
