Experienced Personal Injury Lawyers

A “class action” or “representative action” is a lawsuit brought by one or more claimants as representatives for an entire group of claimants who have been negatively affected by a common violation but who do not need to participate in the lawsuit to be awarded a recovery. A class/representative action  suit may occur when many different people combine similar complaints.  This saves court time and allows a single judge to hear all the concerns  at the same time, and come to one settlement or resolution for all  parties. This process creates a procedure for redressing a relatively  small claim that might otherwise be too costly to litigate on an  individual basis.

A Private Attorney General Act (PAGA) action pursuant to Labor Code §§ 2699, et seq. is similar to a class action and is often referred to as a  representative action. The difference is the plaintiff-employee is  essentially standing in the shoes of the California Labor Commissioner  whose goal is to recover penalties for an employer’s violation of the  Labor Code on behalf of the state and aggrieved employees whom she/he  represents. 65% of the money recovered in these types  of actions is payable to the state and 35% is payable to the aggrieved employees. 

Class  representatives and plaintiff-employees in PAGA actions are often  awarded incentive fees by the court. These fees are in addition to what Class representatives and plaintiff-employees in PAGA actions can earn from the suit itself.  

The Law Office of Thomas D. Rutledge plays an active role in shaping the outcome of employment wage and hour class action lawsuits in California and sometimes the U.S. Our cases typically involve unpaid wages, but sometimes other claims too like violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act or similar consumer protection statutes.

The following is our class action department’s top investigations and current cases:
