Proof Required?
If you rented an apartment at The Willows Apartments in New Orleans East between January 2014 and June 2025, you may be entitled to a partial refund on your rent as part of a $3 million class action settlement. The settlement was reached to resolve claims brought by former tenants against the apartment complex, and eligible residents don't need to have taken any legal action themselves to benefit. The $3 million fund will be distributed among qualifying tenants who submit valid claims before the deadline. While the exact payout per person depends on how many people file and how long they lived at the property, this is a meaningful settlement that could put real money back in your pocket just for submitting a claim. The claim deadline is July 24, 2026, so there's still time to find out if you qualify and get your paperwork in. Class Action Buddy makes the filing process simple — no lawyers, no confusing forms, just a straightforward way to claim what you may be owed.

How Much Can You Get?

The total settlement fund is $3 million, which will be divided among all eligible tenants who file a valid claim. Each person's share is expected to be calculated as a partial refund of rent paid during their tenancy at The Willows Apartments — meaning tenants who lived there longer may receive a larger payout. The exact dollar amount per claimant is not yet confirmed, as it depends on the total number of claims submitted and the length of each tenant's stay. Once all claims are reviewed and administrative costs are deducted, remaining funds will be distributed to qualifying residents. Check back for updates as more details become available.
