Group Litigation Order (GLO) now in place for personal injury claims

On 9 March 2012, the High Court in Cardiff made a Group Litigation Order (GLO) in relation to personal injury claims being made by women who received PIP breast implants. Mark Harvey of Hugh James has been appointed as the lead solicitor. The GLO will allow those affected to have their cases heard by a Judge. Those who have not yet started their claim will need to do so to be included in any further action.

The purpose of the GLO is to ensure that all such cases are pursued and managed together. The GLO has been approved by the President of Queen's Bench Division and the GLO and has now been lodged in the High Court in London. It is anticipated that there will be a trial in the winter of 2013.
