Disculpa, tomé "claims" como verbo y no es así. Diría que las afirmaciones/aseveraciones de la demanda/pleito, etc.

en la demanda se alega/se aduce/se expone que


Explanation:

yo lo expresaría de esa manera, porque en verdad "la demanda" no alega, sino que "en" la demanda "se alega" o "se aduce" o "se argumenta" o "se expone" o el término que mejor quieras usar al efecto.

  -> Gracias Teri!!! Pero creo que en este caso pega mejor "demanda" porque son los Claimants los que esgrimen el argumento. Saludos.
