Dr. Squatch Class Action Lawsuit
Six customers sued Dr. Squatch, LLC in Los Angeles Superior Court, alleging that the company marketed certain soaps and personal care products as natural even though those products contained ingredients the plaintiffs say are synthetic.
Dr. Squatch denies the allegations and denies any wrongdoing, and maintains that its products were properly labeled as natural. The company agreed to settle to avoid the burden, expense and uncertainty of continued litigation, with no finding of wrongdoing and no admission of liability.
The case covers products bought in the United States between November 1, 2018 and August 29, 2026.
Dr. Squatch Class Action Settlement - $9,000,000
Dr. Squatch has agreed to establish a $9,000,000 settlement fund to pay class members who submit valid, timely claims.
The same fund also covers class counsel’s attorneys’ fees of up to one third of the fund, litigation costs of up to $50,000, service awards to the six class representatives of up to $40,000 in total, and the cost of administering the settlement.
The settlement still needs the court’s final approval before any money is paid. A final approval hearing is scheduled for March 2, 2027. Claims must be submitted by November 25, 2026.
Deadline for filing a claim: November 25, 2026
Dr. Squatch Soap Class Action Payout: Up to $12.50
Class members receive $0.50 for each qualifying product they bought. You can claim up to 20 products with proof of purchase and up to 5 products without proof, and the two are cumulative — so a claim covering 25 products comes to $12.50.
Payments are calculated pro rata from the settlement fund once fees, costs and administration are taken out. If the total value of valid claims is more or less than the money available, the amount paid per product is adjusted down or up to match.
Each household may submit only one claim, and payment follows the court’s final approval rather than the claim deadline.
Dr. Squatch Soap Class Action Eligibility
You are a member of the settlement class if you bought one or more Dr. Squatch products in the United States between November 1, 2018 and August 29, 2026 whose labeling described the product as natural.
People who bought the products in order to resell them are excluded from the settlement class.
You do not need a receipt to file. Proof of purchase raises the number of products you can claim from 5 to 20, but a claim without it is still valid. Claims must be submitted by November 25, 2026.

FAQ
Six customers sued Dr. Squatch, LLC, alleging that products marketed as natural contained ingredients they say are synthetic. Dr. Squatch denies the allegations and any wrongdoing. The parties agreed to settle rather than continue litigating.
You are eligible if you bought one or more Dr. Squatch products in the United States between November 1, 2018 and August 29, 2026, and the labeling described the product as natural. People who bought the products to resell them are excluded.
You receive $0.50 for each qualifying product. You can claim up to 20 products with proof of purchase and up to 5 without, and the two are cumulative, so a claim covering 25 products comes to $12.50.
No. You can claim up to 5 products without any proof of purchase. Proof of purchase raises the limit to 20 products, so a receipt increases what you can claim but is not required to file.
Your claim must be submitted by November 25, 2026. Filing earlier is safer, because a claim that arrives after the deadline cannot be paid.
Payments are made after the court grants final approval and the settlement becomes effective, not when you file. A final approval hearing is scheduled for March 2, 2027, and that date can move.
Yes. Payments are calculated pro rata from the settlement fund after fees, costs and administration. If the total value of valid claims exceeds the money available, the amount paid per product is reduced. It can also be adjusted upward if claims come in below the available amount.
No. Each household is limited to a single claim, however many people live there and however many products the household bought.
You stay in the settlement class and are bound by the settlement and the final judgment, which gives up your right to sue Dr. Squatch separately over these claims — and you receive no payment, because payment requires a valid claim.
Dr. Squatch has agreed to establish a $9,000,000 settlement fund. That fund also pays class counsel’s fees of up to one third, litigation costs up to $50,000, service awards up to $40,000 in total, and the cost of administering the settlement.
