Class action lawsuits are legal proceedings that allow one person, or a small number of individuals, to bring a claim on behalf of hundreds or thousands of other persons in a similar situation with similar complaints against the same entity. These proceedings serve as a significant tool against powerful corporations and industries.

The strength of a class action lawsuit places the person with a claim (Plaintiff) on level with influential corporate entities (Defendant). There are certain requirements that must be met in order to proceed with a class action lawsuit.

If you, a family member or a friend have a class action suit, call the Davis Law Office and our competent lawyers can assist you with your class action claims.

A succession proceeding is a legal proceeding that transmits or transfers the property of the deceased person to his or her heirs.

A will is the legal disposition or transfer of the testator’s (deceased) person’s property according to the will and intent of the testator’s (deceased) person that is reduced to and expressed in writing. The will takes effect upon the death of the testator.

Do you need a will? Maybe and maybe not. If you are a mother or father or husband and wife and have children and want your property to be inherited equally by your children, you do not need a will. If on the other hand, you want to give more to one child than the other or you want to give some of your property to someone other than your children or make a donation to your school, church or some other organization, you will need a will to do so.

2. medical coverage for all medical treatment, drugs and prescription
