OpenClassActions.org is a dedicated team of writers and legal researchers who find and publish consumer-facing information about class action settlements, investigations, and legal news so people can file valid claims on time. We focus on translating legal news into plain language so that anyone can be informed and take action to protect their privacy, data, and health in the consumer space.
Our Mission
Empower consumers with accurate and up-to-date information about class action lawsuits, settlements, and consumer rights to keep corporations honest. The goal is simple – help more eligible people claim funds they are owed from faulty services and products; From promises that companies don’t honor to their customers and users.
Our Vision
Over 90% of open class action settlement funds go unclaimed. We want to increase awareness, improve clarity, and make it easier to file legitimate claims before deadlines.
Editorial Standards

How We Verify
