Who Gets Paid, and How
Nobody was paid automatically. Money goes only to people who filed a valid claim by July 2, 2025 (online by 11:59 p.m. Pacific, or postmarked to the administrator). If you did not file, there is no payment waiting for you and no late form.
Payment method was your choice on the claim form. First-round payments went out by direct deposit, Venmo, PayPal or paper check, based on what each claimant selected. Bank deposits show up as “Lopez Voice Assistant” or “Lopez Voice Asst—Payouts.” The one-time reissue for people whose first payment expired was offered by ACH (bank transfer) only — the official portal called it “the final chance for you to cash/deposit your settlement award.”
Case Details
The settlement is in Lopez et al. v. Apple Inc., Case No. 4:19-cv-04577, U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, before Judge Jeffrey S. White. Final approval came in October 2025; the federal docket shows the case closed on October 14, 2025. The settlement notice told class members not to call the court about payments — the administrator handles them: 1-888-981-4106, info@LopezVoiceAssistantSettlement.com, or Lopez Voice Assistant Settlement Administrator, P.O. Box 6609, 614 Cranbury Rd, East Brunswick, NJ 08816. Official site: LopezVoiceAssistantSettlement.com.
Status: Final Reissue Round, Cash-By Date November 5, 2026
In plain terms: if you asked for a reissue in time, the money should have reached your bank by ACH. If you hold a reissued payment you have not deposited, do it before November 5, 2026. If your first payment expired and you did not request a reissue, the official site offers no further route; the administrator's phone line is the only place to ask about an individual case.
How to Check Your Lopez Payment Status
1. Look at your account first. Search your bank, PayPal or Venmo history for “Lopez Voice Assistant” or “Lopez Voice Asst—Payouts” from late January 2026 and, for reissues, from late September 2026.
2. Find your two codes. The official portal asks for the Claimant ID Code and Confirmation Code you received when you filed and in reminder emails from info@LopezVoiceAssistantSettlement.com.
3. Ask the administrator. Call 1-888-981-4106 or email info@LopezVoiceAssistantSettlement.com with your Claimant ID. Do not call the court. Our general guide to settlement check problems covers wrong names, closed accounts and lost mail.
How Much Was Actually Paid
What people report receiving: deposits of between $8 and $40 depending on the number of devices, per CBS News; 9to5Mac put the average at $8.02 with a maximum of $40.10. These are reported figures, not an official per-device number from the administrator, which we did not find published. A reissued payment is the same award sent again, not a new or larger amount.
How cases like this one end
Our copy of the federal courts’ own case database covers 16,001 other personal property damage casesclosed in U.S. federal district courts between 2015 and 2026, 11.3% of them filed as class actions:
- 32.5% ended in a settlement recorded by the court. Another 19.5% were dismissed voluntarily, which often follows a private settlement — so the real settlement share sits between 32.5% and 52.1%.
- 5.9% were decided on a motion before any trial.
- 1 in 90 reached a trial (1.1%), after a median of 27.5 months.
- Median time from filing to the end of the case: 8.4 months.
- Only 250 of them (1.6%) record a money award at all; the median of those is $443,000.
These are base rates for this type of case (federal other personal property damage cases) — not a prediction about this lawsuit, and not legal advice. Source: Federal Judicial Center, Integrated Database (civil), analysed by Settlement Insight. Cases heard in state courts are not included.

Three Things to Watch For
A real payment with an odd sender name, plus a final deadline, is exactly what imposters copy:
“Last chance to claim your Lopez money” links
Reissue requests are closed and claims closed July 2, 2025. A message offering a new claim or a fresh reissue before November 5, 2026 is not from the administrator. Type the official address yourself instead of clicking.
Look-alike sender addresses
Real reminders came from info@LopezVoiceAssistantSettlement.com and quote your Claimant ID Code and Confirmation Code. A different domain, or a request for your bank login or card PIN, is a phishing attempt.
Fees to “release” or “unlock” a payment
The administrator is paid from the settlement fund. Nobody legitimate charges you to receive, speed up or reissue a Lopez payment.
Lopez Payout — Questions People Actually Ask
What is the lopez voice assistant settlement check status right now?
As of October 2026, the official site says final reissued payments were scheduled for September 21, 2026 and must be cashed or deposited by November 5, 2026, and that no additional reissue requests are being processed. First-round payments went out from January 23, 2026.

How much will people get from the Apple settlement?
For the Lopez Siri case, the cap was $20 per device for up to five devices. Reported payouts were about $8 per device — an average of $8.02 and a maximum of $40.10 per 9to5Mac, cited by CBS News. Other Apple settlements pay differently; see our Apple settlement overview.
How do I know if my settlement check is real?
A real Lopez deposit is labeled “Lopez Voice Assistant” or “Lopez Voice Asst—Payouts,” and real emails come from info@LopezVoiceAssistantSettlement.com and refer to your Claimant ID. If in doubt, call the administrator at 1-888-981-4106 — a number taken from the court-approved notice, not from the message.
How do I check my lopez voice assistant settlement check claim status?
Have your Claimant ID Code and Confirmation Code ready, then contact the administrator at 1-888-981-4106 or info@LopezVoiceAssistantSettlement.com. The online reissue form is closed, so the phone and email lines are the remaining route.
My payment expired or never arrived. Can I still get it?
The official portal described the ACH reissue as the only reissue option and the final chance, and it now states that the reissue deadline has passed. If you believe a reissue you requested never arrived, contact the administrator before November 5, 2026 with your Claimant ID.
How to apply for an Apple lawsuit claim?
You can no longer apply in the Lopez Siri case — its claim deadline was July 2, 2025. Other Apple cases have their own administrators and deadlines; check our list of open class action settlements rather than any link in an email.
What happens to money nobody cashes by November 5, 2026?
No official plan for leftover funds after that date has been published on the sources we reviewed. Until the administrator posts one, assume an uncashed payment is lost after November 5, 2026.
Separate from this case: were you injured in the last 2 years?
Class-action payouts are fixed amounts through an administrator. A personal injury claim is a different case — and often worth far more. Free estimate, no obligation.
