What is the risk taken by counsel in prosecuting this action?

Plaintiffs assert that counsel assumed a contingency risk in prosecuting this action. Additionally, large scale litigation such as this is complicated and time consuming. Plaintiffs argue that counsel assumed additional risk because some cases have found wage and hour actions not suitable for class adjudication. See, e.g., Ordonez v. Radio Shack, No. 10-7060-CAS (JCGx), 2013 WL 210223, *6, 10 (C.D. Cal. Jan. 17, 2013) (court declined to certify class because individual issues predominated in rest break claims despite evidence of unlawful policy).
