Class actions and collective redress
The claimant side, run as a service.
We find the case, register the claimants and build the book, then keep it running. Funders get a working matter, not a list of names.
For litigation funders, counsel and claim foundations.
Where cases stall
Collective actions rarely fail on the merits. They fail at the gate.
A Dutch court first decides whether a collective action may proceed at all. It decides on documents: who the foundation represents, how the claim is funded and whether the claimant register holds up. All of that comes before anyone argues the harm.

Questions
What Steddle is, and what it is not.
What is Steddle?
Steddle runs the claimant side of class actions and collective redress as a service. It finds the case, builds the platform where claimants register, builds and verifies the book of claimants, and runs the notices, registers and transfers a collective action needs. It works with litigation funders, counsel and claim foundations.
Is Steddle a law firm?
No. Steddle gives no legal advice and does not represent claimants. Counsel of record and the claim foundation run the litigation. Steddle runs the operation behind it.
Why does the claimant side decide a collective action?
Under the Dutch WAMCA a court first decides whether a collective action may proceed at all, and it decides on documents: whether the foundation represents its class, whether the funding leaves control with the claimants, and whether the register can be evidenced record by record. That is the claimant side, and it is decided before anyone argues the harm.
Where does Steddle work?
Steddle is based in Amsterdam and starts from Dutch collective redress under the WAMCA. Its claimant platforms take registrations from across Europe, in the claimant's own language.
Where does the name come from?
From the staddle stone: the mushroom-shaped pillar farmers set under a granary to raise it off the ground. It keeps the harvest dry and the rats out.
What are Bron and Send NDA?
Two services Steddle built for its own work and opened to everyone. Bron shows what a Dutch law said on any day, with the official document behind it. Send NDA sends an NDA that both sides sign online.
