Mount Airy, MD | said by digitalfreak:Of course if they weren't doing this in the first place, there wouldn't be any reason to sue them. Is there an actual example of a class action lawsuit in modern times that actually got some measurable, tangible form of compensation for the plaintiffs? It seems that all of these follow the simple template of the defendant paying the leeches lawyers to go away and giving the plaintiffs themselves some token form of "relief" that can only be used to purchase a new set of goods or services from the defendant.

I look at class action lawsuits as doing a job the government should be doing, and isn't. I have been involved in one and didn't expect any money, but it sure made the company modify their behavior. Does the tobacco settlement mean anything to you? It went beyond a mere token settlement.
