What happened
Attorneys working with ClassAction.org believe that The Wall Street Journal may have violated the California Invasion of Privacy Act by installing tracking tools on its website to distribute accountholders’ personal data to third-party companies without consent.
Do you qualify
You need all of these to be true:
What it costs you
Nothing. The attorneys who bring these claims are paid out of what they recover, so there is no bill to you either way. PayMe does not take a cut of your recovery.
Who's handling it
This claim is administered by Bryson Harris Suciu & DeMay PLLC, which connects claimants with an attorney to take the case forward.
PayMe surfaces the claim, checks whether you qualify, and keeps you posted once you are in.
How long this takes
There is no posted deadline, which means intake is still open.
After you sign, the claim sits with the attorneys and moves over months. We keep watching it and tell you where it stands, including when nothing has changed.
