GCA Lawyers acted for a farming business in a complex High Court claim involving alleged disease transmission from a key supplier. The matter resolved satisfactorily after a detailed factual investigation led by GCA established the evidential basis for liability, including through discovery applications, input from leading UK veterinary scientists, and information obtained from government agencies and third parties.
GCA acted in a major class action against Southern Response on behalf of around 3000 claimants, arising from alleged concealment of information relevant to Canterbury earthquake insurance claims. The case resulted in a historic first opt-out order and a settlement under which eligible class members recovered 100% of their assessed damages.
