CONSUMER CLASS ACTIONS

For over 30 years, the attorneys at Fineman ◊ Poliner have led the charge in class action litigation—holding private businesses and government entities accountable for unlawful and deceptive practices.
We represent consumers and employees in cases involving fraud, false advertising, overbilling, bait-and-switch schemes, and other tactics that take advantage of the public. Whether it's a corporation misrepresenting a product or a government agency violating the law, we step in to demand accountability and fight for justice.
Consumer fraud can take many forms—false billing, confidence tricks, identity theft, and more—and the financial consequences for victims can be devastating. Our legal team has deep experience confronting major national and international companies, as well as public agencies, that use dishonest practices to boost profits or avoid compliance.
At Fineman ◊ Poliner, we use class actions to give power back to the people. We’ve successfully pursued claims involving:
  • Overbilling and false charges
  • Gift card redemption issues
  • Privacy violations and data misuse
  • Misleading marketing and unfair sales practices
We bring these cases under powerful consumer protection laws, including the Consumers Legal Remedies Act, the Unfair Competition Law, and the False Advertising Law. If you’ve been misled, exploited, or overcharged, we’re here to help you fight back—and win.

EMPLOYMENT CLASS ACTIONS

Standing Up for Workers—Together
At Fineman ◊ Poliner, we focus on bringing class action lawsuits on behalf of employees whose rights have been violated in the workplace. When employers break labor laws, it often affects many workers in the same way. Class actions give employees a powerful way to speak up as a group—leveling the playing field and creating real accountability.
We represent workers who've experienced wage theft and other unfair practices, including:
  • Unpaid overtime
  • Missed meal and rest breaks
  • Misclassification as independent contractors
  • Failure to reimburse work-related expenses
Class actions don’t just help individual employees recover what they’re owed—they can uncover widespread violations and drive company-wide changes that protect everyone moving forward.
Successfully handling employment class actions takes deep experience, strong legal strategy, and significant resources. With over 30 years of combined experience, the attorneys at Fineman ◊ Poliner are highly skilled in navigating the complexities of class action law. We’ve helped workers across California recover lost wages and secure justice—and we’re ready to help you, too.
