A California federal judge has granted final approval to a $1 million class action lawsuit settlement involving claims that certain homeopathic products sold by Heel Inc. were deceptively marketed. Consumers who purchased the products and submitted a valid claim for the Heel class action settlement will receive cash awards ranging from $25 to $150 by the end of July 2014, according to the Settlement Administrator.
The Mason v. Heel settlement resolves allegations that certain Heel homeopathic products were sold with misleading statements, including that they were “natural,” “clinically proven,” and “doctor recommended.” The company has vigorously denied the allegations but agreed to the Heel class action settlement last August. A federal judge preliminarily approved the deal three months later, and granted final approval on March 13, 2014.
Class Members included all U.S. consumers who purchased one or more Heel homeopathic products included in this list of dozens of eligible products between Dec. 21, 2008 and Feb. 5, 2014. The products included but were not limited to:
- Heel Traumeel
- Heel Detox Kit
- Heel Zeel
- Heel Luffeel
- Heel Allergy
- Heel Sinus
- Heel Cold
- Heel Cocculus
- Heel Arthritis
Class Members with proof of purchase could claim $25 per product purchased, up to a maximum refund of $150. Those without proof of purchase could claim up to $100.
The deadline to file a claim for the Heel class action settlement was June 11, 2014. Settlement awards will distributed in late July, according to an update to the Settlement Administrator website www.HeelClassActionSettlement.com.
