EasyClaim℠ is CAA’s proprietary online claims submission system. It allows class members to submit claims securely using a web browser. One of the key benefits of EasyClaim℠ is that it is economical. When compared to traditional mailed-in claim forms, EasyClaim℠ cuts claims processing costs by 75%. Other advantages of EasyClaim℠:
It’s Convenient – The simplicity of filing online means that class members have convenient way to participate in a settlement. EasyClaimSM eliminates the need for class members to mail their claim form. After filing, a class member receives immediate confirmation that their claim was submitted.
It’s Flexible – EasyClaimSM can quickly and cost-effectively adapt to the specific requirements of each case. We can implement a customized EasyClaimSM site in less than a week. EasyClaimSM can be used in lieu of, or in tandem with, paper claim form submission.
It’s Economical – Compared to traditional claims procedures that involve paper claims mailed in by class members, EasyClaimSM routinely reduces claims processing costs by 75%. The efficiencies gained through EasyClaimSM enables benefits to be distributed sooner to class members, reducing the overall length of the project and lowering administration costs.
Damage Modeling
Sometimes the only barrier to reaching a settlement is the lack of agreement between the parties on key facts related to damages. CAA’s Damage Modeling Services can help.
Our expert knowledge in analyzing data allows us to create dependable and meaningful damage models. Our reputation as an independent third party empowers us to reach a fact-based conclusion on which both parties can rely for settlement negotiations.
CAA’s Damage Modeling Services team is led by our President, Matthew E. Pohl, who has over 15 years of damage modeling experience. As an added benefit, Mr. Pohl’s expert knowledge of settlement administration allows him to not only determine damages, but also work with the parties to establish an efficient and equitable method for distributing benefits that is consistent with the damage methodology.
Special Master
The Special Master role is not always needed in a class action settlement. However, if your case is one of these exceptions, CAA is ready to help.
CAA’s President, Matthew E. Pohl, has been appointed as Special Master in multiple complex class settlements. In this role, CAA has developed benefit allocation models, designed settlement procedures, been responsible for developing and managing medical monitoring programs, and reviewed class member appeals regarding the qualification for and amount of settlement benefits.
CAA’s experience managing nearly 200 class settlements allows us to seamlessly integrate the Special Master role with the role of settlement administrator.
