A lead plaintiff deadline applies only to an investor who wants to ask the court to lead the case. Class members do not need to act by that date to remain in the class, but they ordinarily must submit a claim form to be paid and are bound by the result unless they opt out. Unless marked Firm case, the firm is not counsel in these cases. How lead plaintiff deadlines work

Common questions

Am I talking to a lawyer?

No. The intake assistant is an AI system. It collects information and prepares a summary for you to review. An attorney at the firm reviews every submission and makes every decision about a matter.

Which AI does the firm use, and is my information used to train it?

The typed assistant runs on Claude, made by Anthropic, through the CITE8 intake platform. Under Anthropic's commercial terms, your messages are not used to train its models. Spoken conversations run on GPT-Live, OpenAI's voice model, with OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Terra applying the same intake rules; OpenAI states that data sent through its API is not used to train its models by default. See How the intake assistant works and the Privacy Notice.

What happens when I use voice?

Your browser turns your speech into text in the box, and you review the text before you send it. The site does not record or keep audio. Your browser's own speech service (for example, Google in Chrome or Apple in Safari) processes the audio to produce the text. If you choose Talk with the assistant instead, the spoken conversation runs on OpenAI's GPT-Live, as described in How the intake assistant works.

What does it cost?

Contract reviews, negotiation, and drafting are billed at the flat fees published above and confirmed in a written engagement agreement. Reviewing a class action or mass tort submission costs nothing and creates no obligation; if the firm takes such a matter, the fee arrangement is set out in a written agreement, and in a class action, attorneys' fees are paid from any recovery and are subject to court approval.

Do I need to do anything to be part of a class action?

Generally, no. If a court certifies a class, people who meet the class definition are ordinarily included without taking any action. To receive money from a settlement, however, class members usually must submit a claim form by a deadline, and a class member who does not opt out by the deadline in the court's notice is bound by the result.

Can I talk to a person instead?

Yes. Use Talk to a person in the chat, or call (918) 238-6445.
