Our expertise
The Litigation team at BDB Pitmans specialise in group action litigation. Group action litigation occurs when multiple parties bring a collective claim against another party, or parties, who have caused each member of the group harm.
Our experience in this area extends to acting for a wide range of institutions and consumers and bringing claims against Solicitors, Financial Advisers and Banks.
We have particular expertise in Professional Negligence Group actions and claims arising from Unauthorised Collective Investment schemes.
The team is made up of experienced litigators who will guide you through each stage of the litigation and will work hard to obtain the best result for the group.
Our reputation in the market allows us to garner the support of third party funders, who provide the funds necessary for the group to pursue the litigation.
