How State Eligibility Works

Most class action settlements are open to residents nationwide, but a growing number are limited to specific states — often because the underlying lawsuit was brought under a particular state's consumer protection statute. Common state-restricted examples include:

• California-only: settlements under CLRA (Consumer Legal Remedies Act) or UCL (Unfair Competition Law).
• Illinois-only: BIPA (Biometric Information Privacy Act) class actions — voiceprints, fingerprints, facial geometry.
• Washington-only: "Job posting" wage-disclosure settlements under the state's Equal Pay and Opportunities Act.
• Multi-state: Beef price-fixing settlement (27 specific states), pharmaceutical antitrust settlements (varies by state repealer laws).

Each state page above lists exactly which currently-open settlements your state qualifies for — no guessing required.
