Frequently asked questions

Q

How does CaseMark ensure my class action notice complies with Rule 23?

A

CaseMark automatically cross-references your notice against Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 23 requirements, Federal Judicial Center guidelines, and Cornell LII standards. The platform verifies that all mandatory elements—class definition, settlement terms, opt-out procedures, and hearing details—are properly included and formatted for court approval.

Q

Can CaseMark extract case-specific information from my existing documents?

A

Yes. CaseMark uses advanced document analysis to pull key facts, allegations, procedural history, and class definitions directly from your uploaded case files. This eliminates manual copying and ensures accuracy while maintaining consistency across all notice sections.

Q

What if my case involves a settlement versus litigation-only notice?

A

CaseMark adapts to both scenarios. For settlement notices, it includes sections on proposed terms, benefits, attorney fees, and claim submission procedures. For litigation-only notices, it focuses on class definition, legal rights, and opt-out procedures, automatically adjusting content based on your case stage.

Q

How long does it actually take to generate a complete class action notice?

A

Most users generate a complete, court-ready notice in 10-15 minutes. This includes uploading case documents, reviewing extracted information, and finalizing the output—compared to 6-8 hours of manual drafting, research, and formatting.

Q

Does the notice include proper contact information and deadlines?

A

Yes. CaseMark prompts you to input or verify claims administrator details, court hearing dates, opt-out deadlines, and class counsel contact information. The platform structures this information in compliance with best practices from the Federal Judicial Center and state bar associations.

Q

Can I customize the notice language for my specific jurisdiction?

A

Absolutely. While CaseMark generates a comprehensive draft based on federal standards and authoritative sources, you maintain full editing control to adjust language for state-specific requirements, local court preferences, or unique case circumstances before finalizing.
