STUDENT GROUP CLAIM ANNOUNCES SETTLEMENT OF UCL CLAIM

16 Feb

We are pleased to announce that Student Group Claim members have agreed a settlement with UCL. The settlement represents a positive end to UCL students’ court case where they sought to obtain financial compensation from the university for the periods when teaching was moved online and libraries were closed during the pandemic.

Shimon Goldwater, Partner at Asserson, which jointly represented the claimants suing UCL, said:

“I am very pleased that our clients have been able to achieve a commercial settlement of their claims with UCL. Student Group Claim will now turn its attention to claimants who attended other universities during the pandemic.”
