If I chose to participate in a class action lawsuit, will I receive less in damages as opposed to a personal injury lawsuit?

A class action lawsuit occurs when a group of individuals who were all affected by a certain defective product or negligent company join together in a lawsuit. In class action lawsuits, there is a good chance you will receive less money because the compensation is divided amongst every lawsuit participant. However, many people believe that class action lawsuits have a greater chance of winning since it shows the extent of damage caused by the party at fault.
