Win your motion to compel arbitration? Keep the champagne on ice. The recent proliferation of mass arbitration has subjected defendants to inefficiencies, administrative expense, and continued liability. Learn how we got here, and if compelled to arbitration, how to prepare and deploy a successful mass arbitration campaign.

In this presentation, we will discuss the legal, ethical, and practical considerations in combining a class action with consolidated personal injury actions in an MDL.

This panel will compare a class action where you must provide class-wide damages to a government investigation where the goal is typically to penalize a company for violating the law. They will also discuss the growing trend by defendants to bring Daubert/Rule 702 challenges to experts at the class certification phase of the case, and ways to combat that with the law and/or strategic decisions.

The U.S. Supreme Court’s 2021 decision in TransUnion v. Ramirez has triggered waves of follow up litigation, with defendants raising standing defenses in a wide range of cases. Some federal circuits have tossed out class actions on standing grounds that would have seemed unthinkable a few years ago, but plaintiffs have also won some great victories staving off the standing monster, while other courts are still wrestling with these issues. This session will draw out some key threads in this fight.

This panel will discuss the recent developments in European law giving consumers access to justice through collective redress. The presentation will focus on experiences learned from cooperation between attorneys in the United States and various European member states including Portugal, the Netherlands, and the UK. Lastly, the presenters will discuss the future of EU collective redress and cross-border cooperation among the plaintiff’s bar.
