Finkelstein Thompson LLP is investigating allegations that companies shipping goods between the United States and Puerto Rico wrongfully overcharged their customers. If you paid for sea shipping services along that route, you may have been a victim of this alleged fraud. According to press reports, Crowley Maritime Corp., Sea Star Line LLC, and Horizon Lines, Inc. revealed in April that they were the subjects of an investigation by the United States Department of Justice. Those same reports indicated this investigation concerned potential antitrust violations related to the pricing practices of ocean carriers operating in the Puerto Rican trade. These violations - if proven - may entitle customers of these companies to legal remedies. If you feel that you may have been victimized by this practice and wish to discuss your rights and interests in this matter, please contact our Washington, D.C. office toll-free at (877) 337-1050 or by This email address is being protected from spam bots, you need Javascript enabled to view it . |
