Berger Montague filed class action complaints throughout the United States on behalf of consumers who received Experian, TransUnion, or Equifax consumer reports with a tax lien or other public records errors.
Plaintiffs alleged that Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax willfully violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) by reporting tax liens that were already paid and failing to follow reasonable procedures to ensure that the tax lien information they reported was as accurate as possible. The cases were as follows:
Thomas v. Equifax Info. Services, LLC, No. 18-cv-684 (E.D. Va.). FCRA class action, alleging violations by credit bureau, providing nationwide resolution of class action claims asserted across multiple jurisdictions, including injunctive relief, and an uncapped mediation program for millions of consumers.
Clark v. Experian Info. Sols., Inc., No. 16-cv-32 (E.D. Va.). FCRA class action, alleging violations by credit bureau, providing a nationwide resolution of class action claims asserted by 32 plaintiffs in 16 jurisdictions, including injunctive relief and an uncapped mediation program, for millions of consumers.
Clark/Anderson v. Trans Union, LLC, No. 15-cv-391 & No. 16-cv-558 (E.D. Va.). FCRA consolidated class action, alleging violations by credit bureau, providing groundbreaking injunctive relief, and an opportunity to recover monetary relief, for millions of consumers.
The claims periods for each case have ended.
