GCR further highlighted our ability to secure large settlements for our clients and to lead litigation that shapes the legal landscape. Commenting on our case highlights:
“Recent highlights include winning approval for a $2.7 billion settlement on behalf of employers and individuals claiming Blue Cross Blue Shield entities illegally agreed not to compete with each other. On top of being the largest-ever antitrust settlement based on standalone allegations, the agreement also secures injunctive relief. The firm also won $85 million to settle allegations that major producers of farm-raised salmon fixed prices. Furthermore, the firm reached a $90 million settlement on behalf of app developers that claimed Google’s 30% commission on Play Store purchases was anticompetitive. Hausfeld continues to act for a class of DirecTV purchasers in the In re: NFL Sunday Ticket Antitrust Litigation. In February 2023, the group won certification of two classes seeking damages over alleged overcharges for game broadcasts.”
The numbers and names were correct at the time of research in Summer 2023.
