Important dates
How hard is this claim to file?
Watch out for
- The claim deadline is August 16, 2026 — that is before the final approval hearing, so file first, attend nothing.
- If you want to opt out of the settlement or file an objection, that deadline is July 20, 2026 — an earlier, separate cutoff.
- The only official settlement website is duhssettlement.com. Any lookalike site collecting your information is a scam.
- Payment amount varies — it depends on how many valid claims are filed total, so the per-person amount cannot be predicted now.
We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
