If you have ever bought a product, signed up for a service, had your data exposed in a breach, used an app, received a marketing email, or dealt with a company that may not have been fully transparent, there is a chance you qualify for a class action settlement.

Many of the settlements listed here do not require receipts or detailed documentation for at least the basic payment. These are commonly referred to as no-proof class action settlements. That does not mean anyone can file. You still must honestly fit the settlement’s class definition.

This page focuses on class action settlements that remain open as of August 20, 2026. Some allow a basic cash payment without proof of financial loss. Others require a notice ID or allow the settlement administrator to confirm eligibility through company records. Documentation is usually required if you want reimbursement for larger losses.

Data breaches have become one of the most common ways personal information is exposed. Social Security numbers, medical records, financial account information, driver’s license numbers, dates of birth, login credentials, and health insurance information are all stored electronically by companies that consumers often have no real choice but to trust.

When that information is stolen or exposed, the fallout can be more than an inconvenience. Victims may face identity theft, fraudulent accounts, tax problems, medical identity theft, credit damage, and hours spent trying to clean up a mess they did not create.

Data breach class action settlements usually do not make victims whole. Many settlements offer credit monitoring, identity theft protection, reimbursement for documented losses, and sometimes a smaller cash payment for people who do not have receipts. But the size of the settlement fund and the proof requirements can make a big difference in what people actually receive.

Samsung is one of the most trusted names in consumer electronics. Most consumers willingly pay more for the Samsung name, and it is why so many people bought Samsung refrigerators with high expectations. These refrigerators looked modern, offered premium features, and promised the kind of convenience consumers expect from a major appliance that often costs thousands of dollars.

But for many Samsung refrigerator owners, the built-in ice maker became the most frustrating part of the appliance. Consumers reported ice makers freezing over, water leaking from the refrigerator, loud fan noises, slush buildup, cracked ice buckets, and repeated repair attempts that did not permanently fix the problem.

Those complaints eventually led to the Samsung refrigerator ice maker lawsuit, including the Bianchi v. Samsung Electronics America case filed in federal court in New Jersey. That lawsuit alleged that certain Samsung French door refrigerators had defective ice makers and that Samsung failed to provide a meaningful fix to consumers who kept dealing with the same problems.

Our lawyers are reviewing chlorpyrifos pesticide lawsuits for people diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease after years of pesticide exposure. These cases are still early. But the science and litigation have moved fast in 2026, and the adult Parkinson’s claims now have a much stronger foundation than they did a year ago.

Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate insecticide sold for decades under product names that included Lorsban and Dursban. It was used in agriculture, pest control, orchards, row crops, greenhouses, nurseries, turf, and some older residential pest control applications. The lawsuits allege that manufacturers and sellers knew, or should have known, that repeated chlorpyrifos exposure could damage the nervous system and increase the risk of Parkinson’s disease, but failed to give users a fair warning.

A class action lawsuit was filed against American Express Company and American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. The lawsuit accused American Express of using anti-steering rules in its merchant agreements to stop merchants from encouraging customers to use lower-cost payment cards. Plaintiffs alleged that those rules inflated prices for consumers who used Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and debit cards, even if they never used an American Express card.

The case was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York in 2019. It was litigated for years, certified in part, tried to a jury, and ultimately settled after trial. In July 2026, the court gave final approval to a $17.5 million settlement.

For the last few years, a number of lawsuits have been filed against Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc. (“J&J”) and Vogue International involving the OGX line of shampoo and hair care products. These lawsuits are based on allegations that certain OGX products contained DMDM hydantoin, a preservative that can release formaldehyde, and that the products caused hair loss, scalp irritation, allergic reactions, and other injuries.

Dexcom glucose monitor lawsuits are being filed by people who say Dexcom continuous glucose monitoring systems failed when they needed them most. These claims involve Dexcom G6 and Dexcom G7 sensors, receivers, and mobile apps that allegedly provided inaccurate glucose readings, missed high- or low- blood sugar alerts, failed early, shut down without warning, or failed to alert users that a sensor had stopped working.

Our lawyers are looking for cases where this defect led to a serious injury.  When the device gives a wrong reading or fails to send a critical alert, the result can be hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis, seizure, coma, hospitalization, or death.

The strongest Dexcom cases involve serious injury, documented device failure, medical treatment, app or receiver records, Dexcom support communications, lot or serial information, and a timeline that connects the device problem to the injury.

A new wave of Best Buy “fake discount” class action lawsuits has targeted the company’s use of advertised sale prices, “Was” prices, “Regular” prices, “Comp. Value” prices, and limited-time savings claims. These lawsuits accuse Best Buy of making ordinary prices appear to be special discounts by comparing current selling prices to reference prices that allegedly were not real, recent, or regularly charged.

In January 2025, Porchia v. Best Buy Co., Inc., was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. It alleged that Best Buy used deceptive reference prices for televisions and major appliances sold in stores and online. That case is no longer pending. After mediation, the plaintiffs filed a voluntary dismissal in November 2025, thereby terminating the case. The dismissal notice stated that no class had been certified and no settlement class had been proposed.

But the broader issue has not gone away. In 2026, Best Buy was hit with new lawsuits challenging similar pricing practices. In April 2026, Morgan v. MN Best Buy Co., Inc. was filed in the Central District of California. In May 2026, Tanner v. Best Buy Co., Inc. was filed in the Northern District of California. These newer lawsuits continue the same basic theory: Best Buy allegedly advertised fake or inflated reference prices to create the illusion of savings.
