There has been a surge in people signing up to join the BA Group Action lawsuit following this month’s announcement of our appointment to the Steering Committee that’s conducting the litigation.
The hearing at the High Court of Justice on Friday 4th October 2019 resulted in some key victories for the claimants’ side that we’re a part of. Mr Justice Warby gave the go ahead for a Group Litigation Order (GLO) to be formed, allowing all claimants – which could reach up to around 500,000 – to bring their claims together. This can allow for a far more efficient way of managing the cases and fighting the common issues, and we were delighted with our appointment to the Steering Committee as well.
Last Friday, the British Airways group action case was given the go ahead by Justice Warby for a Group Litigation Order (GLO) to be formed, and it was a landmark decision.
We have been fighting for the rights of those affected by the BA data breach, working tirelessly on a No Win, No Fee basis for our valued clients.
Last year’s cyber-attacks were huge in themselves. Since then, a record-setting fine has been provisionally set, and now we have the green light for the GLO to go ahead. In the world of data breach compensation claiming that we’ve been at the forefront of for many years, this really is landmark stuff.
Mr Justice Warby at the High Court of Justice has given the go ahead for the 500,000 or so victims of the 2018 cyber-attacks to sue British Airways for compensation.
Our firm has been formally appointed to the Steering Committee for the BA Group Action. This means that we will be at the forefront of the action as we continue our fight for justice for the victims of last year’s data breach incidents.

If you were affected by the BA data breach, we have some incredibly important legal advice that we need you to know about now.
There’s a huge hearing set to take place this Friday. At this hearing, the deadline to join the BA Group Action may be set, and there might not be a lot of time for you to start your case.
Our recent exclusive in the media revealed our concerns about the lawyers acting for British Airways and their initial desire for a short cut-off date to join the action. This kind of short cut-off period, if put in place, could lead to hundreds of thousands of people missing out on thousand so pounds in compensation.
If you’ve yet to claim, now is the time to do something about it.
If you were affected by the 2018 cyberattack incidents but you’ve yet to find out if you can claim for the BA data breach, here’s how to know if you’re eligible to join the BA Group Action.
It’s important to understand whether you can join the class action as soon as possible. We believe that the lawyers representing British Airways are looking for a short cut-off date for people to join the action. As per our press release this month, we’ve urging people to claim now to avoid missing out.
It’s really easy to find out if you’re eligible to make a claim for data breach compensation as a victim of the breach. Read on to find out how.
There are set to be important developments that will likely define the deadlines in the upcoming British Airways court case for the 2018 cyber-attacks.
Following on from our press release in the Daily Mail last week, we revealed that Claimants may only have 17 weeks to join the court action. Those who miss the final cut-off date could lose £6,000.00 based on the average potential pay-outs. In extreme cases, valuations could reach as high as £16,000.00.
There’s a lot more to it than just registering basic information, and even more to it than simply agreeing for a lawyer to represent you. If you’re serious about claiming, you need to take action ASAP!
Our lawyers spoke to the Daily Mail about the British Airways class action and how BA look to be trying to limit the pay-out with a short cut-off to join the group case.
We’ve been pressing a lot recently about the need for those who are serious about making a data breach compensation claim as victims of the BA cyber attacks to sign-up now to avoid missing out. With BA’s lawyers launching their own unprecedented action, we’re concerned that some people could easily miss out with a short deadline of just 17 WEEKS to join the case.
We can’t stress enough how vitally important it is that you start your case on our BA Group Action site here to avoid missing out on potentially thousands of pounds in compensation.
Following last year’s serious cyber attacks that affected hundreds of thousands of their customers, the recent British Airways strikes have undoubtedly contributed to another big hit on the IAG-owned airline’s public image.
We’ve talked a lot recently about the concerns we have as lawyers fighting for justice in the BA Group Action. We’ve spoken to the media and have been in the news ourselves about the issues we have with the way the legal cases are going. It seems to us that the lawyers acting for BA are perhaps trying to get a short cut-off date for the court action. This could lead to hundreds of thousands of people missing out on the chance to claim
Add the strikes into the mix, and it seems to me that British Airways has a lot to work to do if they want to improve their reputation.
