How Claim keeps settlement listings accurate

A wrong deadline or a misread eligibility rule can cost you a valid claim. Here is how Claim approaches listing details, the standards it follows, and how to report an error.

Updated November 9, 2026

Which source is correct when details differ?

Claim works to keep listing details accurate. Each settlement has an official settlement website run by the court-appointed administrator. If a listing differs from the official settlement website, the official website is correct.

What does a listing cover?

  • Status: whether a settlement is open for claims, pending approval or closed.
  • Who may qualify: the class definition, in plain language.
  • Deadlines: the claim deadline and other key dates.
  • Proof: whether you need receipts or other documentation.
  • Payouts: what the settlement says it may pay, with its own qualifiers.

What standards does Claim follow?

  • Allegations stay allegations. Companies usually settle without admitting wrongdoing, so Claim describes what a lawsuit alleges, not what a company “did”.
  • No guarantees. Whether you’re paid, and how much, is decided by the settlement administrator.
  • “May qualify”, not “qualifies”. Eligibility depends on the published rules, and only the administrator makes the final call.
  • Plain language. Legal notices are rewritten so they’re easier to read, without changing what they mean.

How do I report an error?

Use the contact page. Include the settlement name, what looks wrong, and where you saw the correct information.

Is Claim part of the court or the administrator?

No. Claim is not a law firm, doesn’t give legal advice, and isn’t the court or the settlement administrator for the settlements it lists. Listing a settlement isn’t an endorsement of the case or a statement about the company involved.

Claim charges a subscription fee, and some features are sold as separate add-ons. Claim may also be paid by partners, such as law firms or referral partners, when you use their service through Claim.
