How to file this claim
- Confirm you meet eligibility: you had a secured loan with one of the defendants, your property was repossessed, and you received both a presale notice and a post-sale explanation dated on or after July 25, 2017
- Do nothing to receive benefits — payments, deficiency write-offs, and credit bureau deletion requests are automatic
- Ensure your current mailing address is reachable; the administrator will mail your check to your last known address and attempt to update addresses using postal databases
- If you wish to preserve the right to sue separately, mail a signed opt-out letter to: AFNI v Martinez, c/o Class Administrator, P.O. Box 23309, Jacksonville, FL 32241
- Cash any check you receive promptly — checks become void after 120 days
Watch out for
- Checks are void after 120 days if not cashed — watch your mail and act quickly when a check arrives
- If your address has changed, the administrator relies on postal databases to find you; contact the administrator directly at 1-800-351-1696 to update your address
- Opting out requires a signed letter postmarked by the opt-out deadline; doing nothing means you accept the settlement and give up the right to sue separately
- If you filed for bankruptcy after the date on your presale notice and that bankruptcy ended in discharge (not dismissal), you are excluded from the class and will not receive benefits
- If State Farm obtained a final deficiency judgment against you, you are also excluded from the class
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.
