Financial Services Class Actions

Highly Experienced Class Action Litigators

As consumers, whether we are borrowers, homeowners, or other customers of financial institutions, we are protected by numerous state and federal laws that prohibit deceptive and unfair practices by banks and lenders. When a financial institution or one of its employees or representatives fails to uphold their fiduciary duty or acts negligently or intentionally and wrongs its customers, a civil suit can be brought to help wronged parties recoup their losses. When a significant number of people suffer similar harm, a class action may be brought against the at-fault party.

McCune Law Group has a history of aggressive class action representation that spans over 30 years. Serving the Inland Empire and the entire U.S., we have represented consumers in financial services class action litigation involving overbilling, mortgage fraud, and more. One of our most notable cases involved a $203 million verdict in a class action against Wells Fargo for unfair overdraft fees imposed on its California customers. We have recovered over a billion dollars in verdicts and settlements, across our practice areas.

Unfair and Illegal Overdraft and NSF Fees

One of the most common ways banks and credit unions make money is by charging their consumers exorbitant overdraft and nonsufficient funds (NSF) fees. The idea behind overdraft fees, is that when a customer makes a transaction but does not have enough money to cover it, the financial institution will cover it with their own funds and charge the customer a service fee for this short-term loan. 

However, financial institutions have concocted numerous ways to unfairly charge their customers overdraft and NSF fees when the account actually has money in the account to pay the transaction. Their methods include not giving customers credit for deposits, deducting money from the account for an authorized payment even though it has not yet come in for and more. These practices unfairly prey on those who are least able to afford exorbitant fees.
