What we say about the firm's legal practice in United States

Litigation

Within Mass tort and class action: plaintiff representation – antitrust, Hausfeld LLP is a first tier firm,

Led by the renowned Michael Hausfeld, Hausfeld LLP has rapidly established itself at the plaintiff’s bar since its inception in 2008, bringing to bear its ‘crucial experience of the tactics which may be employed by both sides in litigation’. The group has a dedicated focus on complex antitrust litigation and class actions, and ‘provides creative advice to resolve issues’. In June 2010, the firm reached a $25m settlement with defendants Land O’Lakes, Moark and Norco Ranch in In re Processed Egg Products Antitrust Litigation. The firm had filed the first case in this action alleging a national conspiracy of supply reduction and price fixing in the egg industry. The firm also saw In re Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) Antitrust Litigation through to successful settlement in 2010 after seven years, winning class certification on summary judgment in 2009 and the subsequent Second Circuit appeal in 2010. The case was finally settled six months before the trial began. The firm also has a London office through which it is pursuing action against an alleged global cartel. Andrew Bullion and Megan Jones are recommended for having a ‘good understanding of business and operational environments’.
