Verdicts & Settlements
Many employees, individuals and even owners of small businesses find themselves facing financial damages or personal injury, resulting from the negligence or misconduct of a large corporation. In these cases, it is frequently a more effective legal strategy to stop the injustice by joining together with other aggrieved plaintiffs in a civil action.
Lawyers With Nearly 25 Combined Years Of Experience In Class Actions
Located in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, and representing clients in class action lawsuits across the state, Hopkins Law Firm, LLC, is the law firm to turn to when considering starting a new class action or joining as a member of a class in ongoing litigation. We call upon our decades of legal knowledge and successful courtroom experience to bear on every case we take.
What Is A Class Action Lawsuit?
A class action is a lawsuit in which one person or a small group of persons serves as “class representative (s)” to bring an action on behalf of a whole “class” of people who are similarly situated, i.e., injured in the same manner by the same defendant or defendants. A class action lawsuit can involve as few as 40 people or as many as several hundred thousand.
Some common examples of class action lawsuits include:
Warranty or guarantee litigation
against a manufacturer or distributor who fails to honor a warranty or guarantee included with the product purchase or sold separately as an add-on contract
Consumer litigation against insurance companies
who deny or reduce claims or otherwise fail to meet the terms of their policy coverage
Product liability lawsuits
against the manufacturer of a defective or dangerous product that has been determined to be the cause of injury or death to consumers
Employment litigation
filed by employees of a large corporation for violating federal or state wage and hour laws, or violating civil rights such as discrimination or failing to provide protections under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
Whistleblower and ``qui tam`` lawsuits
filed against a business accused of fraud on a government on a contract
Civil rights violations
against a private corporation or government entity
Bill Hopkins served as the co-chairman of the AAJ Class Action Litigation Group in 2012.
These are just some examples. If you have a grievance against a corporation or government agency based on an injustice that is causing you or your family financial damages, denied access, a violation of your civil rights or personal injury, you may not be alone. Starting or joining in a class action lawsuit may be your best legal recourse. Settlements and verdicts are often significantly higher than individual lawsuits, and class representatives may receive additional compensation from the outcome.
