Since 2019, the University of Windsor’s Class Action Clinic has been working to help class action members file claims, recover compensation and navigate complex legal processes.

It is the only clinic of its kind in Canada, dedicated exclusively to representing class members.

On Feb. 16, that work will reach a new milestone.
