Abramson v. North Star Insurance Advisors LLC et al., (W.D. Pa.)
Case No. 2:22-cv-827

IF YOU ARE A MEMBER OF THIS CLASS OF PERSONS, YOU SHOULD READ THIS WEBSITE CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT MAY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS.

A Federal Court authorized the Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

  • A settlement has been proposed in the class action lawsuit referenced above pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania (“Action”).  You may be a Settlement Class Member in the proposed Settlement and may be entitled to participate in the proposed Settlement.
  • The United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania has ordered that this Settlement Website be posted. North Star Insurance Advisors LLC, Torchlight Technology Group LLC, and Rapid Response Marketing LLC (“Defendants”) deny they did anything wrong.  The Court has not decided who is right.  Both sides have agreed to settle the dispute to avoid burdensome and costly litigation.
  • If the Court gives Final Judgment to the settlement, Defendants will create a Settlement Fund of $375,000. If you submit a valid Claim Form, you may be eligible to obtain a share from this fund in the amount of approximately $1,000 depending on the number of Claims that are submitted.  The value of a Settlement Class Member’s Individual Allocated Payment Amount will depend upon the number of Settlement Class Members who file valid Claim Forms.

GO TO THE "FAIRNESS HEARING"

The Court will hold a “Fairness Hearing” to consider the settlement, the request for Fees, Costs, and Expenses Award for the lawyers who brought the Action.  

You may, but are not required to, speak at the Fairness Hearing about any objection you submitted to the settlement.  If you intend to speak at the Fairness Hearing, you must also submit a “Notice of Intention to Appear” to the Court and the Parties’ attorneys, indicating your intent to do so.

Hearing Date: June 13, 2024

Time: 10:00 AM ET

N/A
  • These rights and options—and the deadlines to exercise them—are explained in more detail on the FAQ page.
  • The Court in charge of this Action has preliminarily approved the settlement and must decide whether to give Final Judgment to the settlement.  The relief provided to Settlement Class Members will be provided only if the Court gives Final Judgment to the settlement and, if there are any appeals, after the appeals are resolved in favor of the settlement.  Please be patient.
