Cartel damages claims

CMS is one of the leading law firms for cartel damages claims. Our litigation and competition law specialists were pioneers in this field and continue to advise on a consistently high number of cartel damages claims and other competition-related civil proceedings.
We represent our clients in all aspects of cartel damages, both in and out of court, with clients benefiting from our knowledge of both sides of the table. On the defendant’s side, we coordinate the defence – worldwide, if necessary – against cartel damages claims. On the claimant side, we craft an international claims strategy where necessary. If required, we bring in experts from our dispute resolution practice to assist with cartel damages claims.

Our team has successfully represented many companies across various sectors and is involved in all the following high-profile cartel damages cases: 

  • KWR cartel
  • Truck cartel
  • Plant protection cartel
