Consumer Class Actions
Our firm has successfully represented consumers in complex class actions that forced corporations and government entities to change how they do business.
Partner Geordie McGonagle has served as lead counsel in multiple multi-million-dollar consumer class actions, achieving statewide and national settlements for everyday people who were overcharged, misled, or sold defective products.
These cases have included:
-
A national manufacturer of defective hot-water-heater components that failed prematurely and caused costly damage in homes across the country.
-
The Missouri Sheriffs’ Retirement Fund case, which challenged unlawful surcharges on court filings in Jackson County and other Missouri courts—resulting in an $18 million settlement that refunded money to thousands of citizens. (Read about the case here.)
Our class action work extends beyond consumer products and fees. We take on corporations, public agencies, and financial institutions whose misconduct harms people in large numbers but often in small, hidden ways—unauthorized charges, deceptive advertising, or systemic overbilling.
When enough individuals are affected, a class action allows them to join forces and demand accountability that no single person could achieve alone.
If you believe a company or public agency has unlawfully taken your money or misled consumers, our firm has the experience and results to help.
