San Diego Class Actions and the Important Role of the Class Representative.
\nIf it were not for employees participating in California labor class actions, numerous large organizations would continue to get away with mistreated their employees.<\/p>\n
When you are a class representative, you are a part of a very exclusive group of individuals. It means labor laws have affected everyone in the class and they are trying to enforce them. Labor law abuses are brought to the public\u2019s attention and hundreds of employees are paid their unpaid wages that they deserve. Class action labor cases are very effective and government agencies do not even have the resources to compete. There is no employer so big you can’t stand up for your rights.<\/p>\n
The class representative is a unique position that is held by an individual because they take their claim and multiply the impact with other workers who have experienced something similar. However, in order for one to obtain the title of a class representative they have to meet the criteria\u2019s. Additionally, the claims that they are making have to be applicable to their co-workers too. This includes the nature of the work yet not the title of the work.
\nThe class representative is acting on behalf of their fellow coworkers and has a lot of responsibility when it comes to making decisions. Their goal is to be able to convince a judge that everyone in their class has had their labor rights violated and they all deserve compensation. Additionally, this representative has to decide how much money the class representative should receive in special fees. This is all done with assistance from your lawyer.
\nWhen a class action takes place usually, several experienced law firms have to represent the class while the employer only has one law firm. The class representative has to work close with the lawyers and get them up to speed on what took place in addition to providing a testimony in a deposition.
\nThis may seem like it is going to take a lot of time. However, the class representative is not overburdened due to their role. Most of the work is taken care of by the law firms since they are the ones who have to do the research for facts and perform legal research.
\nUsually, the claim is resolved before it has to go to trial through voluntary mediation. When a common ground has been reached the settlement and resolution only has to be approved by the courts. Everyone in the class has to be notified of the projected solution and have the opportunity to remove their claim and branch out on their own or make a comment in court.<\/p>\n
If you bring a claim to us and we find that you would be best served by opening a class action suit you will usually become the Class Rep, but with this responsibility comes awards, our clients have received up to $30,000 in incentives as the representative, in addition to their share of the settlement.
