Duane Morris Class Action Review – 2024/2025: Mid-Year Class Action Settlement Report & Analysis

By Gerald L. Maatman, Jr. and Jennifer A. Riley

Duane Morris Takeaways: Corporate defendants saw unprecedented settlement numbers across all areas of class action litigation in 2022 and 2023, and halfway through 2024, settlement numbers remain robust. The cumulative value of the top ten settlements across all substantive areas of class action litigation hit near record highs in 2023, second only to the settlement numbers observed in 2022. When the numbers for 2022 and 2023 are combined, the totals signal that corporate defendants have entered a new era of heightened risks and higher stakes in the valuation of class actions. On an aggregate basis, across all areas of litigation, class actions and government enforcement lawsuits garnered more than $51.4 billion in settlements in 2023, almost as high as the record-setting $66 billion in 2022. When combined, the two-year settlement total eclipses any other two-year period in the history of American jurisprudence.

As a prelude to the Duane Morris Class Action Review – 2025, this post reports on our analysis of class action settlements through the first half of 2024. The data shows that for the period of January 1 to June 30, 2024, the current year is on pace with the numbers of the previous two years. As of the end of the first half of 2024, the aggregate settlement total across all areas of class action litigation and government enforcement lawsuits is $22.9 billion (in accounting for the top 5 settlements in the various substantive areas of law). It is anticipated that these numbers will increase across the board by the end of the year and when measured by the top 10 settlements in each category.

More Billion Dollar Class Action Settlements

At the mid-way point of 2024, there are four settlements over the billion-dollar mark. In 2023, parties resolved 14 class actions for $1 billion or more in settlements, making 24 billion-dollar settlements in the last two years. Reminiscent of the Big Tobacco settlements nearly two decades ago, 2022 and 2023 marked the most extensive set of billion-dollar class action settlements and transfer of wealth in the history of the American court system.

The Scorecard On Leading Class Actions Settlements Halfway Through 2024

The plaintiffs’ class action bar has scored rich settlements thus far in 2024 in virtually every area of class action litigation.

The following list shows the totals of the top 5 settlements at the mid-year point in 2024 in key areas of class action litigation:

$14.45 Billion – Products liability/mass tort class actions
$4.17 Billion – Antitrust class actions
$2.05 Billion – Securities fraud class actions
$628 Million – Consumer fraud class actions
$388.95 Million – Data breach class actions
$331.5 Million – Privacy class actions
$288 Million – ERISA class actions
$157.15 Million – Wage & hour class and collective actions
$147 Million – Discrimination class actions
$101.3 Million – Labor class actions
$67.7 Million – Government enforcement actions
$58.8 Million – Civil rights class actions
$49.69 Million – TCPA class actions
$24.96 Million – Fair Credit Reporting Act class actions

The high dollar settlements of the past two years suggested that the plaintiffs’ bar would continue to be equally, if not more aggressive, with their case filings and settlement positions. From the 2024 data, it certainly looks to be the case as we end the first half of the year.

The data points in each category are set out in the following charts.
