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, which the notice estimates at $475,000.
The settlement still needs the court’s final approval before any money is paid. A final approval hearing is scheduled for March 2, 2027. The court’s claim deadline is November 27, 2026.
Deadline for filing a claim: November 25, 2026
Dr. Squatch Soap Class Action Payout: Up to $12.50
The settlement offers eligible claimants $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 payments are made to eligible claimants after the court’s final approval rather than at the claim deadline.

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.
The settlement offers eligible claimants $0.50 for each qualifying product, adjusted pro rata. 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 lets you claim up to 20 more products on top of those 5, so a receipt increases what you can claim but is not required to file.
The court’s claim deadline is November 27, 2026: a mailed claim must be postmarked, or an online claim submitted by 11:59 p.m. Pacific time, by that date. The deadline to file with Chimo is November 25, 2026.
Payments are made to eligible claimants 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 are not eligible for a payment, because a payment requires a valid claim.
