WHAT OTHERS SAY

The Lawyer

In 2019, The Lawyer nominated the Trucks cartel case as one of their Top 20 Cases for 2019. In the UK, Hausfeld represents Wolseley UK Ltd & Ors, Suez Groupe SAS & Ors and Veolia Environnement S.A. & Ors. “The trucks litigation is one of the most significant follow-on damages cases being heard in the English courts”, said The Lawyer, “Lining up to defend the manufacturers from further damages are some of biggest names in litigation.”

Hausfeld acted for Stuart Wall (owner of Opal Property Group) in a £670 million interest rate swap mis-selling claim against RBS, alleging the bank caused the failure of Wall’s business. The case was listed as one of The Lawyer’s Top 20 Cases for 2017.
