How hard is this claim to file?
Watch out for
- Your check goes to the address on the notice — if you've moved, contact the Settlement Administrator before the payment is sent.
- If your employment info on the notice is wrong, you must correct it by returning the notice with instructions from Section 6; don't just call.
- Opting out means you won't receive a class payment, but if you're a PAGA group member you'll still get a separate PAGA payment.
- The settlement website links to the Full Class Notice PDF — read Sections 5, 7, and 8 for deadlines and release language before deciding to opt out or object.
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.
