Virgin Media data breach compensation action
Our Group Action Lawyers are pursuing a compensation action arising from the Virgin Media data leak that took place between April 2019 and February 2020.
As this data leak started several years ago, anybody who has yet to pursue a claim is at risk of missing out, and we are at an advanced stage for those who we represent. Our group action claim consists of thousands of people who are claiming with us on a No Win, No Fee basis – you can find out if you are still eligible to claim by starting the case process here now.
Data breach class action – our speciality
A data breach class action – or group action as it is often referred to as in the UK – can allow for the efficient pursuing of many different cases that have similar issues.
These usually stem from a single event that has affected many people, such as a cyberattack or a mass data leak of information. It is much more efficient to group cases together and deal with all the similar and identical issues rather than having to spend time with many cases in many different courts across the UK.
As we are involved in dozens of group and multi-party actions for data breaches, this is a particular expertise of ours. You can speak to our team here for free, no-obligation legal advice now.
SIXT Data breach event – legal advice
The SIXT data breach event is understood to have stemmed from a cyberattack, with those who are potentially affected being notified about what has happened.
We have already taken instructions forward to pursue claims on a No Win, No Fee basis, and this event may lead to a group or multi-party legal case. If you have received confirmation that you have been potentially affected by this incident, please do not hesitate to contact our legal team for free, no-obligation legal advice here now.
Arden University Data Breach Group Compensation Action
Our team is representing a number of individuals who have received confirmation that they have been affected by the Arden University data breach.
Given that potentially tens of thousands of people may be affected by this incident, this may form into a group or multi-party legal case for compensation. Having assessed what has happened, we have agreed to take legal action forward on a No Win, No Fee basis for those who we represent.
Tavistock gender clinic legal action
The Tavistock gender clinic could be facing considerable legal action, and our Group Action Lawyers are available for free, no-obligation legal advice now.
The matters surrounding the clinic relate to minors undergoing treatment for gender dysphoria and engaging in transitioning services. The media has widely publicised criticism in relation to the treatment that was provided for minors, and a recent interim report from Dr Hilary Cass identified the requirement for changes.
Our lawyers and legal team are able to speak to anyone who feels they may have been let down by the Tavistock gender clinic, and discuss whether there could be a case for compensation to answer.
Renault emissions claims for compensation
Your Lawyers – The Group Action Lawyers – are pursuing Renault emissions claims for compensation that stemmed from allegations that the carmaker may be involved in cheating regulations.
Whilst the vehicle manufacturer strongly denies that it has done anything wrong, we believe there is enough evidence to at least investigate the compensation cases that we are representing people for. We are working on a No Win, No Fee basis for eligible clients, representing thousands of people just like you who are claiming compensation against dozens of carmakers in England and Wales.
You can check your eligibility to claim quickly and easily by completing a few simple forms on the dedicated Car Emissions Lawyers website here now.
Ticketmaster group action claim for compensation
The Ticketmaster group action claim for compensation is at a very advanced stage, and we may soon reach a point where we are unable to accept any new cases.
At this late stage, there are no guarantees if you are not yet signed up for a case with us. It is worth speaking to our team here now to find out if you can still claim and, if we can help you, you may be able to benefit from our No Win, No Fee legal representation.
Volkswagen emissions action settlement
The Volkswagen emissions action settlement for claimants engaged in the Group Litigation Order (GLO) in England and Wales is another positive step forward in the global fight for emissions justice.
Tens of thousands of drivers are now in line for pay-outs, despite VW disputing that they had done anything wrong for several years. Whilst settlements can still be made without any admission of liability, it is clear that the compromise recognises the justification for compensation arising from the “Dieselgate” scandal.
The Group Action Lawyers has been representing victims of the emissions scandals since 2015. Eligible clients are able to benefit from our legal services on a No Win, No Fee basis.
Shrewsbury and Telford NHS Trust maternity scandal
Shrewsbury and Telford NHS Trust has been in the media recently over the maternity scandals and the condition of care and treatment provided for over a period of two decades.
The findings of the independent review are tragic and terrible, and we are left questioning how the scandal had been allowed to go on for so long. There can only ever be the hope that the conclusion of the investigations brings some form of closure to those affected, but nothing can change what has already been done. Some victims have been left with lifelong and permanent, serious injuries, and others did not survive as a result of negligence and inadequate care.
Preventing medical implant problems is key for the future
It may sound obvious when we talk about the importance of preventing medical implant problems before mass scandals occur, but it is a key point to raise given our line of work.
As specialist Group Action Lawyers, we have represented thousands of people engaged in group and multi-party actions. Some of those have been for medical implant scandals, including the PIP Breast Implant Scandal, the Vaginal and Hernia Mesh issues, and the Metal-On-Metal Hip Implant cases. What this means is that we have seen first-hand just how badly patients can suffer when things go wrong, and we do not want to see a repeat of such scandals and the awful consequences that ensue. Whilst it can be difficult to prevent problems like the PIP Breast Implant cases where deceit was involved, preventing medical implant scandals through better testing and warnings is a development to push forward with.
It is easy to look back in hindsight and see what could have been done differently. But it is important to look to the future to make sure that there are no repeats of mistakes that could have been prevented.
Mass medical negligence claims for compensation
Mass medical negligence claims for compensation can be the important avenue for some form of justice when a person is harmed as a result of avoidable negligence.
We have advised and represented a lot of people for these kinds of legal cases, and we are proud to offer No Win, No Fee legal representation as part of our commitment to access to justice. The specialist team is here to listen to you if you need free, no-obligation advice about existing claims or new class actions.
You could be owed tens of thousands of pounds in damages, so make sure you step forward to claim what you could be owed.
The wider importance of our emissions actions
Our emissions actions now number at over 30 in terms of the number of carmakers that we are taking legal cases forward for, representing thousands of people on a No Win, No Fee basis.
Whilst action for justice for the consumers is important and is an integral part of what we are doing, it is also incredibly important to recognise the wider importance of the action that we are taking. It is about punishments and deterrents and, given the impact that cheating emissions can have on human health and on our environment, our work is vital.
