Most of us have received a notice in the mail telling us that we are a member of a class action lawsuit.  Many of us wonder what it is and what it means.  A class action lawsuit is a claim in which a large group of people collectively bring a lawsuit.  The thought behind this action is it gives an individual the right to institute a law suit against the largest of corporations.  One of the requirements of instituting a class action lawsuit is that there must be commonality of issues. The U.S. Supreme Court decided two landmark cases this term that severely restrict the successful institution of class action lawsuits.

Child Drunk Driver Motor Vehicle Accident

I received a distressing call earlier this week. The caller had been injured and was attempting to resolve his claim on his own. The insurance company sent him a letter stating that his claim was being denied because Connecticut, he was advised in writing, follows the law of contributory negligence which holds that if you are even one percent liable for your injury then, the insurance company claimed, you could not recover anything. The caller asked me if I could help by representing him.

Once the weather becomes enjoyable, Connecticut’s roads will become a haven for bicycle riders from the surrounding area. The rolling hills are a sought after challenge and the beautiful homes and scenery provide an unparalleled biking experience. However, for the residents who drive the roads every day, the increase in bicycle riders slows traffic and creates situations where neither party knows how to react. Nationally in 2009, over 51,000 cyclists were injured and 630 of those were killed. In Connecticut, there is an average of 289 injuries and 8 deaths every year. Fatality and injury rates in Connecticut are highest for males ages 5 to 19.

However, the twins wanted the court to set aside their settlement and subsequent release, requesting more money due to the increased value of the company.
