Home FAQ Class Action Lawyer FAQ What is a class action lawsuit?
A class action attempts to have common or similar claims resolved in a single proceeding with the result binding upon all class members and opposing parties. In Ontario, a matter which is started as a class proceeding requires an Order for Certification from the Court certifying it as a class action. At the certification stage, the court will consider whether there is a cause of action and identifiable class, whether common issues are raised, whether a class action is preferable for the resolution of common issues and whether there is a suitable representative plaintiff. Then, if the Court believes a class action is appropriate it will certify the action.
