Finkelstein Thompson LLP Investigates Hermetic Compressor Overcharges 

 

Finkelstein Thompson LLP is investigating allegations that purchasers of hermetic compressors may have been wrongfully overcharged for these products. Hermetic compressors are compressors used for refrigeration in refrigerators, freezers, and the like.  If you are a purchaser of a hermetic compressor, you may have paid too much for this product.

Recent news reports indicate that the United States Department of Justice as well as Brazilian and European regulators have opened an investigation into a global cartel involving potential anticompetitive conduce between manufacturers of hermetic compressors.  Those same news reports indicate that companies connected to the investigation include Whirlpool and its subsidiary Embraco, Tecumseh Products Co., and Danfoss.  If these companies have in fact entered into such a cartel, their customers may be entitled to legal remedies.
