This partnership brings advanced fraud prevention and real-time reporting tools to the forefront of the legal industry—ensuring both accuracy and fairness in claim validation.

ClaimScore LLC, the legal technology company leading the fight against claim fraud in the class action industry, today announced a strategic partnership with one of the country’s preeminent claims administrators, A.B. Data, Ltd. A.B. Data, the court-appointed administrator for some of the largest antitrust settlements, including Mackmin, et al. v. Visa Inc., et al. ($197.5 million settlement), In re: Broiler Chicken Antitrust Litigation ($203.35 million settlement), and Jien, et al. v. Perdue Farms, Inc., et al. ($398.05 million settlements), has consistently been at the forefront of adopting cutting-edge technologies. This new partnership reinforces A.B. Data’s commitment to combatting claim fraud in class actions.

The partnership will leverage ClaimScore’s most recent software update, v2.17, through a full technological integration that enables A.B. Data to offer its clients the most sophisticated synthetic identity and duplication fraud protection—designed specifically for class and collective action settlements. Extensive testing across multiple large-scale class settlements demonstrated the system's 99.8% effectiveness in detecting fraudulent claims.

Additionally, this partnership grants A.B. Data's clients access to ClaimScore's proprietary dashboard and custom reporting tools. These innovative solutions provide stakeholders with real-time claims and fraud reports, along with comprehensive data analysis. This enhanced visibility ensures the most up-to-date reporting in the industry and includes evidentiary-level review of every claim submitted.

“At ClaimScore, we strive to provide only the best software tools to combat claim fraud in class and collective settlements,” said ClaimScore COO Bryan Heller. “Our approach differs from the rest of the industry, as we use data-driven advanced pattern recognition technology, which does not block or exclude anyone from making claims in these settlements. This update—a substantial step in ensuring that all legitimate claims are approved while excluding fraud—is significant for both us and the industry. We are proud to launch this update with A.B. Data, a company laser focused to provide its clients with best service by, among other things,  seeking out and using forward-thinking tools that raise the bar for fraud prevention while protecting the rights of legitimate claimants.  And, we appreciate all their support generally and with this integration, which we’ve already collectively deployed with immediate success.”

Thomas R. Glenn, CEO and President of A.B. Data, echoed Heller’s comments on the integration, stating: “claim fraud has been an evolving challenge in our industry, and, after looking for solutions both inside and outside of the legal space, we determined that a technological integration with ClaimScore - which built its solution specifically for the class action industry - was best for us and our clients.  Both companies share the same ‘client first’, technology-driven mindset, and this partnership allows AB Data to provide the most up-to-date, sophisticated and cost-effective solutions to our clients, both on the anti-fraud and reporting front.  Working with ClaimScore avoids blanket exclusions or over-filtering. Instead, sophisticated technology and methodology is applied that learns and adapts—ensuring fraudulent activity is accurately identified and excluded.  We’re excited at the results thus far, and for our plans on a full scale roll out in the short term.  This integration represents a major leap for the class action administration industry and reflects a growing need for smarter, more adaptable solutions”

Heller concluded, “A.B. Data has entrusted us with some of their largest case matters, and our partnership continues to drive positive outcomes. We believe our technology, combined with A.B. Data's expertise, will set a new standard in fraud prevention while maintaining fairness for legitimate claimants.”
