According to the filing, the plaintiffs' attorneys were awarded approximately $233 million for their work on the case, plus an additional $16.5 million for expenses.
The Burton plaintiffs raised concerns over the settlement's nationwide nature, arguing that it fails to hold accountable South Carolina brokerages profiting from wrongdoing.
NAR's settlement leaves certain states with brokers who will avoid accountability, as Co-Lead Counsel consider these smaller entities unworthy of further legal pursuit.
The objection from the Burton plaintiffs noted that several brokerages that opted into NAR's settlement did so past the opt-in deadline, potentially undermining the agreement.
