Frequently asked questions
Do I need a lawyer to file a claim in the Uber settlement?
No. Class members can typically file directly with the settlement administrator without hiring an attorney, unless you opt out to pursue your own lawsuit.
How long does it take to receive payment?
After the claim deadline, the court must approve the settlement and claims are processed. Payments often arrive months after the final approval hearing.
Can I file if I no longer use the service?
Eligibility depends on the settlement definition of class members. Many settlements include former customers if you were affected during the class period.
What if I already received a notice by mail or email?
Official notices include a claim ID or instructions. You can still use the administrator website to file or check status using that notice.
Is there a cost to file?
Filing with the official administrator is free. Be wary of third-party sites that charge fees to submit the same form.
What proof do I need?
Requirements vary. Some settlements accept self-attestation; others ask for receipts, account records, or documentation of harm.
Can I opt out of the settlement?
Yes, if you opt out by the deadline you preserve your right to sue individually. Opting out means you cannot claim settlement benefits.
