Alongside proposed class representative Professor Carolyn Roberts, we have taken the first step in launching a new opt-out competition collective action claim by serving six major UK water companies letters before action on behalf of businesses, charities and local government. ⚖️ 💬 Partner and case lead Zoë Mernick-Levene, said: “We are delighted to continue our work tackling what we believe are the anti-competitive practices of England's biggest sewerage companies with Professor Roberts. For too long, these monopoly sewerage companies have been under-reporting the true number of sewage spills to their regulators, which has resulted in higher prices to customers and in doing so, breaking competition law.” #ClassActions #Disputes #Consumers #DisputesPowerhouse #CompetitionLaw #EnvironmentalLaw #CollectiveAction
