Am I Included?

The First Amended Complaint defines the proposed class to include all persons employed by Allstate as insurance agents pursuant to an R830 Allstate Agent Compensation Agreement or R1500 Agent Employment Agreement whose contract was terminated by Allstate between November 10, 1999 and December 31, 2000, as a result of the Mass Termination Program.

The Complaint also describes several subclasses, as follows:

All class members who refused to sign the Release and whose employment contract was terminated by Allstate between November 10, 1999 and December 31, 2000 (the holdout subclass);
All class members who were employed under an R830 contract at the time of their termination (the R830 subclass);
All class members who were employed under an R1500 contract at the time of their termination (the R1500 subclass); and
All class members who were age forty or older as of June 30, 2000 and who file their written consent to join this action with the Court (the ADEA subclass).

Class members may be members of one or more subclasses.

If you were an Allstate agent under an R830 or R1500 contract whose employment was terminated as a result of the Mass Termination Program, then you are a member of the proposed class and may benefit if the suit is successful.

On the Information from Class Members page, you will find some topics to which, if you have relevant information, you may be able to assist us in obtaining class certification. A copy of our class certification motion is posted here.

Under the rules of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, after considering our motion for class certification and Allstate's response, the Court may grant our motion, deny it, or permit additional discovery and allow us then to renew the motion. The Court’s ruling on the class certification motion will greatly influence your status in the litigation.
