Is a claim filed through PeopleClaim a true legal claim?
While the claims themselves carry no legal weight (they are similar to pre-litigation statements of claim or demand notices), any settlement that results from the PeopleClaim resolution process amounts to a contractual obligation. Generally speaking, our Settlement Agreement, which both parties endorse when a claim is resolved, can be considered a legally binding document.Many people don’t realize that going to court is unnecessary in a large share of civil disputes. As a matter of fact it should be considered a last resort, available when other channels prove inadequate. PeopleClaim provides a convenient “first resort” for most kinds of resolution and recovery.
