Welcome to the Louis et al. v. SafeRent Settlement Website. The Settlement Administrator is working on the payment of Settlement Awards to Eligible Class Members who submitted valid claims. Payments are expected to be sent by June 20, 2025.
Mary Louis and Monica Douglas filed a class action lawsuit in 2022 claiming that SafeRent violated fair housing and consumer protection laws by using its SafeRent Score product to make rental housing decisions for applicants in Massachusetts holding public housing vouchers.
SafeRent denies that it did anything wrong, violated any law, or that the claims have merit.
On November 18, 2024, the Final Approval Hearing was held resulting in the Court’s approval of the settlement. Payments are now estimated to be sent out during Spring 2025. At this time, Class Counsel is in the process of reviewing all supporting documents and claims submitted. If we are unable to gather all necessary information from your claim to verify voucher status, we will reach out to request any missing data. Additionally, if your claim was denied you will receive a notification from the Settlement Administrator with an explanation of why it was denied.
