Active Lawsuits
Have you ever felt wronged or unfairly treated? If so, you may have legal rights. A lawsuit is a legal process where one party (the plaintiff) seeks justice against another party (the defendant). It can be a complex process, but it can also be a way to seek compensation or resolve a dispute.

What is a Lawsuit?
A lawsuit is basically a legal fight. It’s like a dispute that’s taken to a court to be settled. One person (the plaintiff) thinks they’ve been wronged by another person (the defendant), so they file a lawsuit to get justice.
Think of it like a game, but instead of playing cards or board games, people are arguing about something serious. The judge is the referee, and they decide who’s right and who’s wrong.
Types of lawsuits
Lawsuits can vary widely depending on the nature of the dispute. Here are a few types of lawsuits that might be relevant to our subprime audience in the USA:
Class Action Lawsuits
A class action lawsuit is a legal case where a group of people with similar claims sue a defendant together. This can be helpful when many people have been harmed by the same company or action. For example, if a bank has charged excessive fees to many customers, they might file a class action lawsuit to recover their losses.
MultiDistrict Litigation (MDL)
An MDL is a type of case where several related lawsuits are consolidated in a single federal court. This can be helpful when many lawsuits are filed in different jurisdictions but involve similar issues. For example, if a pharmaceutical company is facing product liability lawsuits in multiple states, an MDL might be created to centralize the cases.

Can I Afford a Lawsuit?
Many people worry about the costs associated with a lawsuit. However, with Law Karma, you can connect with attorneys who work on a contingency fee basis. This means you don’t pay anything upfront, and you only pay a fee if you win your case.
How does it work?
- Law Karma connects you with a qualified attorney:
We’ll match you with an attorney who specializes in your type of case. - Attorney evaluates your case:
The attorney will review the details of your case to determine if it has merit. - Contingency fee agreement:
If the attorney believes your case has a strong chance of success, you’ll sign a contingency fee agreement. This agreement outlines the percentage of the settlement or judgment that the attorney will receive as their fee. - No upfront costs:
You won’t have to pay any legal fees out of pocket during the case. - Pay only if you win:
If you win your case, the attorney’s fee will be deducted from the settlement or judgment.
Typically, contingency fees are around 33-40% of the settlement or judgment. However, this can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the attorney’s experience.
With Law Karma, you can access affordable legal representation without the financial burden.
What if my English language skills are limited?
Don’t worry if English isn’t your first language. Many attorneys are experienced in working with clients who have limited English proficiency. They can use interpreters or other tools to ensure effective communication.
