Halunen Law represented one of the class plaintiffs and was a class counsel in the case, Russo et al. v. Walgreens, alleging overcharges for certain prescription drugs in excess of Walgreens’ savings club prices. The class action settled for $100 million after being litigated for seven years, and is under the supervision of the federal district court in Illinois.
The federal district court in Illinois, which is overseeing the case, issued a recent order recently directing the processing of claims. In the next several months, the claims will be reviewed, deficiencies will be addressed, and payments will be issued.
If you have filed a claim, additional information is available at Walgreens Savings Club Settlement.
“Halunen Law is pleased that the case has settled, said class action attorney Susan Coler. “It has been a long haul, but Walgreens has ceased the challenged conduct and the persistence and patience of the class representatives has brought results for millions of Walgreen’s customers who filed claims.”
