In a class action lawsuit a representative is chosen and will present her case as an example of all the other claims. There are several factors which need to be evaluated and subsequently qualified in order to certify a class action. (1) A Large number of claimants. (2) The victims have a similar issue of law of fact against the defendant. (3) The class representative is able to adequate represent the claims of the other victims. (4) The claims of the representative and typical of the on class members. Class action lawsuits place all the members of the class on an equal footing meaning that the settlement amount received will be divided equally amongst all the embers. Major potential issues which may arise is when the injuries of some of the class members are more severe. In those circumstances court will decline to provide for more compensation.  Single party claims can be more advantageous because an individual is able to receive a settlement or jury award comparable to the severity of the harm he has suffered.
