US law firm targets Google foes for private damages claims


When it rains, it pours: Google is being singled out by a US law firm specialising in class action lawsuits.

BRUSSELS: US law firm and class action specialist Hausfeld launched a platform to help pursue claims against Google, posing a potential headache for the world's No 1 Internet search engine amid its regulatory troubles in Europe. 

Hausfeld has coordinated various high-profile class action cases, including for companies affected by an air cargo pricing cartel, investors impacted by currency-rigging by banks and firms fighting fees levied by MasterCard and Visa Europe.
