Can I pursue damages for cartel conduct in Australia and how do I start a private competition-law claim?

Hello, thank you for reaching out. If you suspect cartel or anticompetitive conduct has harmed you financially, you can pursue a damages claim in Australia, usually through the Federal Court. You'll need evidence like financial records and communications, and generally have up to six years to start a claim. Most cases are handled as class actions, but individual claims are possible. It’s highly recommended to get advice from a competition law lawyer. If you’d like, I can provide text-based consultation over WhatsApp with the help to guide you further.
