If it's a claim form the case has been settled and there will be no appeal. That is usually how it goes because the defendant always makes out better that way. Do not admit anything but feeling sorry for these poor ignorant people so you throw them some crumbs.
We have plenty of contingency-fee lawyers here. It depends on what kind of case you have and how confident the lawyer is of winning. Cases of this type are usually contingency and the amount awarded to the lawyer is based on a fee-application submitted to the court. The reason the fees run so high is that the lawyer has to maintain some contact with the class members and charges an exorbitant amount per member. If the same communication was handled as direct mail, the price would be about one-third. The courts believe this stuff and approve the high amount. The class members get bupkes.
