Wandro & Associates, P.C. has partnered with the National Student Legal Defense Network in bringing a class action lawsuit against La'James International College on behalf of La'James' Iowa students for engaging in deceptive consumer practices. These deceptive practices led to devastating effects on these students' lives and livelihoods, and now that the nation is in a state of crisis due to the COVID-19 outbreak, those students need our help more than ever.
La'James was the subject of a 2018 investigation by the New York Times and the Hechinger Report, which highlighted how the school left graduates with low-paying jobs and debts they cannot afford to pay.
The class is defined as all persons who were enrolled or remain enrolled at any Iowa campus of La'James who were awarded financial aid and provided with a financial aid disbursement schedule, and whose financial aid disbursements were not made in accordance with that schedule, either due to a delay in disbursement by La'James, or their failure to disburse financial aid. The class is limited to students who have not received their final credit balance payment, who are still owed a balance that should have been paid to them, or who received their credit balance after a delay, after March 20, 2018.
If you are a current or former student at La'James who fits the above description, or if you know someone who fits that description, please contact Wandro & Associates at (515) 281-1475 or email akanne@2501grand.com. We will get the justice you deserve.
