Joint Juice Settlement for Maryland Residents: How to Claim
Last updated May 05, 2026 · By Class Action Buddy
Yes, Maryland residents qualify for the Joint Juice settlement and can claim up to $150 for purchases of these glucosamine supplements. This class action lawsuit alleged that Premier Nutrition made false advertising claims about the joint-health benefits of their Joint Juice products.
If you're a Maryland resident who bought Joint Juice supplements, you have until May 15, 2026 to file your claim. The settlement resolves allegations that the company misled consumers about glucosamine's effectiveness for joint health, even though scientific evidence doesn't support these marketing claims.
The good news is that filing is straightforward, and you'll receive payment via electronic check delivered directly to your email. You don't need receipts or proof of purchase for smaller claims, making this one of the more accessible settlements for Maryland consumers. Given the generous deadline and easy filing process, there's really no reason not to claim your portion if you purchased these products.
Why Maryland Made the Eligible List
Maryland is included in this settlement due to the state's strong consumer protection laws and how the class action was structured. The lawsuit likely encompassed multiple states where Premier Nutrition marketed Joint Juice products with allegedly misleading health claims.
Maryland's Consumer Protection Act provides robust protections against false advertising, particularly for health-related products. When companies make unsubstantiated claims about supplements like glucosamine's joint-health benefits, Maryland residents have legal recourse under state law.
The inclusion of Maryland in this settlement reflects both where the products were sold and where consumers were allegedly harmed by the misleading marketing. Class action settlements often include specific states based on where the defendant conducted business, where the lawsuit was filed, or which states have relevant consumer protection statutes that apply to the alleged conduct.
Eligibility for Maryland Residents
Maryland residents who purchased Joint Juice supplements containing glucosamine are eligible for this settlement. The products in question include various Joint Juice formulations that were marketed with claims about supporting joint health and mobility.
You're eligible regardless of when you purchased these products, as long as you were a Maryland resident at the time of purchase. There's no specific purchase window mentioned, which means this likely covers several years of sales. You don't need to prove you were harmed by the product or that it didn't work for you.
The settlement excludes purchases made for resale or commercial purposes - this is meant for individual consumers who bought Joint Juice for personal use. You also can't claim for products you received for free as samples or promotional items.
Most importantly, you can claim up to $150 without providing receipts or proof of purchase. This makes the process much easier for Maryland residents who may have purchased these supplements months or years ago but no longer have documentation.
How to File from Maryland

You'll need to provide basic information about your purchases, including approximately when and where you bought the products, though exact dates and receipts aren't required for claims up to $150.
