‘Swipe right to sue’: DoNotPay – Now you can file lawsuits the same way you find hookups on Tinder

Exorbitant legal fees, seemingly endless bureaucracy and an uncertain time investment mean that the decision to pursue legal action against a company or an individual is often fraught with hesitation.

But the founder of a legal-services app says his product now allows users to sue someone with their smartphones and claim awards from class-action lawsuits the same way they’d select a match on Tinder — with a quick "swipe right to sue."

Since those new services launched Wednesday, the app, known as DoNotPay https://itunes.apple.com/app/id1427999657 , has been downloaded more than 10,000 times, according to its founder, Joshua Browder, a 21-year-old senior at Stanford University who has been labeled the "Robin Hood of the Internet."
