Start A Claim
We have simple-to-use contact forms to help you get your emissions claim started 24/7/365.
The idea of pursuing an emissions claim against your vehicle’s manufacturer may seem daunting. We are very aware this was never something you wanted to do when you first bought the vehicle. In fact, no one buys a car or truck hoping to later find out that it was anything but the great vehicle described. The sad reality, though, is that once a class action settlement is in place, you only have a limited amount of time to protect your rights.
To be 100% clear, we are not a class action law firm and the class action settlements we are discussing are cases filed by other law firms. Our firm, Stern Law, is here to help those who are looking for alternatives to the class settlement they will otherwise be automatically tied to. Our law firm is not attempting to change environmental laws – we are focused on ensuring that those caught up in an emissions scandal are provided the opportunity and resources need to understand their rights and options, including a possible individual claim for their vehicle.
In order to have our firm start helping you pursue an emissions claim, please provide us with the necessary details about your vehicle through the forms above. From there, our team will reach out to you to complete the intake process and further explain the steps needed for our firm to help you with an emissions claim!
It’s as simple as that! With this information, we are able to begin the steps necessary to have an emissions claim started on your behalf. At no time will your information ever be sold, traded or used for any purpose other than discussing the legal matters surrounding your vehicle. Where a class action law firm is able to automatically represent you and set your legal options if you don’t opt out of their settlement, we will need to speak with you and get the ball rolling on filing a claim outside of the class action. That can’t happen without knowing key pieces of information about your vehicle and, ultimately, walking you through the emissions claim process.
It is important to know Stern Law firmly believes in preparing ahead of a class settlement, which is why we take action months, even years, before a final settlement is reached to ensure owners are well-informed about the situation at hand. A class action can take years to finalize but, once reached, can force owners to follow their terms after only 60-90 days. Known as the opt-out period, this short time window is the only thing standing between a member being able to make an individual claim that focuses on achieving the result an owner wants and their being forced to accept whatever settlement was already reached. By making information available to potential class members early, we help owners better understand their rights so that when a class settlement is reached, they can make an informed decision on what is in their best interest and pursue an emissions claim that works for them.
If you have already completed the contact form above – great, we will be in touch regarding the next steps needed to pursue an emissions opt out claim. If you are still trying to collect more information on a potential claim and want to better understand the emissions scandal involving your vehicle, we encourage you to use the menu at the top of the page to read more about the situation. Our firm believes strongly in transparency and making information easily available, so never hesitate to call us at (844) 808-7529 to speak with a team member about anything you read on our website. An emissions claim should not be something you handle in a class action simply because you waited too long to act – instead, it should be based upon what works best for you. We look forward to helping you make that decision!
