Latest News
Latest NewsThe claims period ended on August 31, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. EDT.
(heure de l’Est).
We submitted to the Claims Administrator, Epiq, the claims of individuals whose files were active but incomplete at the time of the deadline.
This was done to preserve class members’ rights, as claims had to be submitted before the end of the claims period to be eligible for compensation.
Proactio will continue to assist individuals whose claim files are incomplete until December 18, 2026, so that they may complete them.
