Class action litigation poses as one of the most significant risks to corporate defendants today. Procedural mechanisms like the one set forth in Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure have the potential to expand a claim asserted on behalf of a single person into a claim asserted on behalf of a behemoth that includes every employee, customer, or user of a particular company, product, or service, over an extended period. As plaintiffs increase the size of their cases, the resulting legal risks can grow, bringing increased leverage for plaintiffs and ever-evolving risks for businesses.
Join our speakers in this CLE webcast as they explore the latest developments in class action litigation and discuss essential best practices. This program is designed to empower attendees with a ‘class action toolkit’ to assist in navigating the complexities of class action litigation.
