Work highlights
The European Trucks Cartel’s overcharging of customers across Europe for 14 years led to significant economic harm and substantial legal costs, prompting claimants to seek financial support from Burford, which has provided funding and legal assistance to pursue claims, resist challenges, and enable clients to monetise their claims for immediate capital without incurring additional risks.
