Putting an end to about five years of litigation, a federal judge in Connecticut has given her final approval of a $72.5 million settlement involving The Hartford Financial Services Group.
The suit was brought against the insurance group by more than 21,600 people who alleged The Hartford underpaid personal injury and workers' compensation claims by devising an alleged "scheme" to keep the money within the insurance group.
Judge Janet C. Hall granted her final approval last week. In June, Judge Hall gave her preliminary approval of the settlement.
