ABOUT HAUSFELD LLP
Vision Statement
Hausfeld LLP is a global claimants firm founded on a very simple yet largely unmet premise: global wrongs must be accountable to global rights. With unique global resources, unlimited creativity and steadfast integrity, we seek to achieve unprecedented results on behalf of citizens and corporations involved in large and complex disputes that touch every corner of the globe and impact every industry and population.
Our firm is focused on and committed to delivering conflict-free litigation services to global plaintiffs – individuals and organizations – in the areas of antitrust/competition law, human and civil rights, mass torts, environmental threats, securities fraud, and consumer protection.
Because countries and regions are increasingly acknowledging through new laws the existence of rights and remedies and adopting judicial mechanisms that provide justice to victims of mass wrongs, we believe a tremendous need exists to offer global citizens and corporations impacted by these wrongs effective and meaningful access to justice. As best expressed by Sir Anthony Clark,
In today’s global village we can no longer live as islands unto ourselves. The continued growth of our ever-increasing globalized economy, of multi-national corporations, of the free movement of capital and services, of financial markets, of private international law and ever more common standards of human rights has an important consequence for us all. We must all ensure in this increasingly complex and interconnected world that our national civil justice systems are able to effectively respond to disputes which cross national boundaries.
The present challenge to a meaningful rule of law proscribing abusive conduct is how best to “keep a grip on global actors in a global economy” equally, for all effected persons, individually or collectively.
For nearly 40 years, Chairman Michael Hausfeld has worked to provide global access to justice for innocent groups of claimants that have suffered egregious wrongs and have a right to seek recovery. This life-long passion is reflected every day in the dedication of our high caliber team of legal professionals, who have come together out of a shared social vision to affecting the law in all circumstances.
The most significant legal achievements are not realized by retreating from seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Applying a forward-thinking, progressive approach and seeking creative solutions to the most vexing global legal challenges, Hausfeld LLP seeks to achieve groundbreaking results and forge dynamic new legal precedent that extends beyond what had previously been thought possible.
