Experienced Class Action Representation in Kansas and Missouri
When a company’s conduct affects a large number of people in similar ways, pursuing an individual lawsuit may not always be the most practical approach.
In certain circumstances, a class action allows individuals with similar legal claims to seek relief collectively.
Goza & Honnold’s Kansas City class action attorneys have experience handling complex litigation in Kansas, Missouri, and federal courts, including class actions and multidistrict litigation.
Our attorneys work to investigate complex claims, evaluate evidence, and pursue appropriate legal remedies for individuals and businesses affected by alleged misconduct.
What Is a Class Action Lawsuit?
A class action is a lawsuit in which one or more individuals seek to represent a larger group of people with sufficiently similar legal claims.
Rather than requiring every affected person to bring a separate case, a class action may allow common legal and factual issues to be resolved together.
Before a lawsuit can proceed as a class action, the court must determine whether the legal requirements for class certification have been satisfied.
Types of Class Action Cases
Our experience in class action and complex litigation includes matters involving:
Defective Products
Claims involving allegedly defective or dangerous consumer products.
Consumer Fraud
Claims involving deceptive business practices, misleading representations, or improper charges.
Breach of Contract & Warranty
Disputes involving contractual obligations, service agreements, warranties, and business representations.
Environmental Damage
Claims involving environmental contamination, pollution, or toxic exposure.
Civil Rights Violations
Claims involving alleged violations of constitutional or other legally protected rights.
Commercial & Financial Disputes
Complex litigation involving financial losses, commercial torts, and business conduct affecting multiple parties.
Benefits of Class Action Litigation
Depending on the circumstances, class actions may offer:
- Efficient resolution of common legal questions
- A practical way to pursue certain smaller-value claims
- More consistent treatment of similar claims
- A mechanism for addressing conduct affecting many people
Whether class treatment is appropriate depends on the particular case and applicable law.
Class Actions vs. Multidistrict Litigation
Class actions and multidistrict litigation are different legal procedures.
In a class action, one or more plaintiffs seek to represent a defined group, subject to court approval.
In multidistrict litigation, separate federal lawsuits sharing common factual questions may be transferred to one court for coordinated pretrial proceedings. Individual plaintiffs generally retain their own claims.
Goza & Honnold has experience with both types of complex litigation.
