Is this the same thing JetBlue pilots tried to do when they opened up LGB pertaining to or"overtime" and block or better pay or is this something else? And if so, what changed that makes this more realistic now?
 
Or maybe a tax thing. If you live in a state with no income tax but are based in Cali they might come after you for state income tax. You should only have to prove you live out of state and spend less than half your time in Cali.
 
Even the scummy ambulance chasing mesothelioma law firm, on daytime television has a more reputable email and 800 number.

I can think of several reasons why this would be a good idea for any firm, reputable or not.

The only reason I can think it would be a good idea is that there would be a record on a server that they don't control so if there was an investigation it would all be there.
 
Basically, it's a cheap and easy way for them to aggregate contact info for the Class. If the suit doesn't progress, then it hasn't cost them anything in terms of their own IT resources, really.

But how secure is it? How do you guarantee client confidentiality? L

I'd trust Google's security way more than I'd trust some random (or even no so random) law firm.

That's fair, but "trust" isn't an encryption standard. Maybe it meets the requirements for the state bar in which this law firm operates, but that would be the primary issue.

Attorneys were getting in all sorts of trouble putting unencrypted client files on drop box at one point. Making sure client data is locked down is hugely important.

That was sort of my point - this sounds like they're gathering info - collecting people to see if they're going to BECOME clients.
 
I'm not the OP but am a lawyer and also am working on a class action for VX pilots in CA. I am a former partner at a very well-known, large firm and handle complex litigation matters. The point of the class action is force VX to comply with CA labor laws and pay their pilots fairly. As mentioned above by someone else, just last week a court reached this conclusion with respect to VX flight attendants. We are unaware of any reason why the same reasoning should not apply to pilots.
