Class Action Lawsuits

Eshelman Legal Group

A "Class Action" lawsuit is one in which a group of people with the same or similar injuries caused by the same product or action sue the defendant as a group.

Class action type lawsuits date back to the 13th century. They were introduced in England and at that time were called group litigation. Over time group litigation in England became mostly non existent. However, here in the United States group litigation survived. In the United States during the early 1800's, group litigation became know as representative litigation. This was used when there were an excessive number of cases with similar situations. Sometime later, we called these types of lawsuits Class Action lawsuits.

Why do we have class action lawsuits. If you can imagine thousands and even millions of people that have been affected by the same type of injury, for example a defective drug that has been widely used and caused thousands of people to suffer the same type of injury. These injured people all feel the need to file a lawsuit against the offending drug maker. Our court systems simply could not handle an additional 500,000 to 1,000,000 new cases in that short of time. So to help speed up the process, class action lawsuits are the choice to process such a large number of similar cases.
