Smith v. Assurance IQ, LLC

Case No.: 2023-CH-09225

Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois 

CLASS ACTION AND PROPOSED SETTLEMENT

All persons (1) to whom Assurance IQ, LLC or its agents placed, or caused to be placed, a call or calls, (2) directed to a telephone number for which Assurance IQ LLC’s records show a WN and/or DNC designation, and for which the parties’ reverse telephone number lookup process returned names different than names Assurance IQ, LLC associated with the telephone numbers, (3) in connection with which Assurance IQ, LLC used, or caused to be used, an artificial or prerecorded voice, (4) from October 1, 2018 through March 6, 2024.


A Settlement  has been proposed in the class action lawsuit referenced above, which is pending in the Chancery Division of the Cook County Illinois Court (“Action”). You may be entitled to participate in the proposed Settlement.

The Chancery Division of the Cook County Illinois Court has ordered the issuance of this notice. Assurance IQ, LLC (“Assurance IQ”) denies it did anything wrong and has defended itself throughout the lawsuit. The Court has not decided who is right. Both sides have agreed to settle the dispute to avoid burdensome and costly litigation.

If the Court finally approves the Settlement, Assurance IQ will create a fund of $21,875,000. If you submit a valid Claim Form, you may be eligible to obtain a share of this fund. Class Counsel estimates each participating Settlement Class Member’s share of the fund will be approximately between $167 to $33. Each participating Settlement Class Member’s share of the fund may be higher or lower depending on how many Settlement Class Members in total elect to participate in the Settlement.
