Compensation for tyre purchases following European Commission raid

Hay & Kilner are assisting a London-based law firm, specialising in the resolution of complex domestic and international commercial disputes, in helping companies seek compensation from alleged price-fixing by leading automotive tyre manufacturers.

The European Commission has raided Pirelli, Continental, Michelin, Nokian Renkaat, Bridgestone, and Goodyear, suspecting them of price-fixing. A consultancy suspected of co-ordinating the cartel is also being investigated. UK aftermarket tyre resellers are likely to have been harmed by this conduct.

If your business has purchased replacement tyres between 1 January 2020 and 1 January 2024, you may be entitled to substantial compensation due to the alleged anti-competitive actions of these leading tyre manufacturers.

Who can join?

• Businesses that spent at least £500,000 annually on tyres from these brands.
• Online retailers and distributors supplying to retailers.

No up-front costs
The costs of the litigation will be covered by a funder and litigation insurers, meaning claimants will avoid the burden of fees and adverse costs risk. The funder and insurers will be paid out of the final damages in the event the action is successful.
