A class action lawsuit, such as the ones our lawyers have filed against British Petroleum (BP) and other parties, is brought by one or more plaintiffs on behalf of a large group of others who have a common legal claim. In this case, the claim involves the Gulf oil spill that occurred on April 20, 2010.
A class action or a representative action is a form of lawsuit where a large group of people collectively bring a claim to court and/or where a class of defendants are being sued.
A class action lawsuit ensures that all plaintiffs receive relief and that early-filing plaintiffs do not raid the fund (i.e., the defendant) of all its assets before other plaintiffs may be compensated.
