It Is called the British Airways Data Event Group Litigation.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to know that there is only one formal GLO for this case. Since news of the GLO forming hit the press, a few other law firms have started to invite people to register claims with them. This includes firms that were not present at the hearing, and it can become a bit of a minefield when it comes to knowing who is best to represent you for a case.<\/p>\n<p>With this in mind, to make sure you are in the picture and avoid any confusion, we will set out some key information about the formal GLO as well as providing an insight into its aims and purpose.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>The official British Airways Data Event Group Litigation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A \u201cgroup action\u201d is not necessarily \u201c<em>the<\/em>\u201d formal GLO. When lawyers reference such things, you need to make sure that instructing them means that you will be a part of the official British Airways Data Event Group Litigation.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, firms have registered information for victims of actions in general and then tried to refer cases across to other lawyers late in the day. Really, it should be the case that any firm you sign-up with is actively taking part in the formal GLO and will be a part of the action that has been established.<\/p>\n<p>Some key information about the official GLO is as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Judge: Mr Justice Warby;<\/li>\n<li>Managing Court: The Queen\u2019s Bench Division of the High Court of Justice (Media and Communications List), Royal Courts of Justice, Strand, London WC2A 2LL;<\/li>\n<li>Date of Order: 4<sup>th<\/sup> October 2019.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When a GLO is formed, one or more law firm will also form a Steering Committee that is responsible for the overall conduct of the litigation. We have been representing BA data breach claimants since news of the incidents first emerged, working on a No Win, No Fee basis for our clients.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What is the aim of the GLO?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The point of forming <strong>the BA Group Action<\/strong> is to ensure that the common issues for claimants\u2019 cases can be tried and tested as one set of court proceedings.<\/p>\n<p>It would be incredibly inefficient to have to take thousands of separate cases to different courts across the country when they are all mostly arguing the same points in law.<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of the GLO is to narrow the common issues and then reach a conclusion as to whether BA should be responsible for paying compensation to victims of the data event. If they are held liable, claims can then be assessed to determine how much people can be entitled to receive.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How to join the British Airways Data Event Group Litigation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You can <strong>sign-up to join the BA Group Action on our website here<\/strong>, and if you\u2019re eligible to join the British Airways Data Event Group Litigation, we can represent you in the action on a No Win, No Fe basis.<\/p>\n<p>We have obtained funding and insurance which is there to allow us to pursue the case for our clients and ensure that they are adequately protected if something goes wrong. Although we are confident that we will be able to succeed with the case, it is usually an essential part of a GLO to have funding and insurance in place.<\/p>\n<p>We will be working on the joint matters as part of the Steering Committee to narrow the common issues and we will keep you updated as a valued client.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have a formal Group Litigation Order (GLO) established for victims of the 2018 cyberattacks that hit BA.
