You often hear about American-style 'Class Actions', but European and UK laws work differently. To defend yourself effectively, you must understand the mechanism we use.
The limits of standard Class Actions
In many European countries, formal class actions are very heavy, slow, and reserved for approved consumer associations. They rarely result in rapid compensation for victims.
Joint Collective Action
Our strategy is based on Joint Collective Action (JCA). Each victim files their own individual case, but we group these cases before the same court via the same law firm. The mass effect terrifies manufacturers (risk of media backlash) while ensuring that your specific damage will be compensated.
