Tuesday, April 15, 2025, from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm (ET)
The intersection of potential statutory liability with company decisions that necessarily involve large numbers of people, like telemarketing or the sale and trading of public-company securities, has created potential class action exposure since the last century. From that perspective, it is unsurprising that emerging trends in class actions now include website tracking, biometric identification, and artificial intelligence. Understanding class actions can help navigate these new trends.

Key Topics:
- First steps for assessing a proposed class action complaint
- Jurisdiction and procedural complexities, including expert testimony considerations
- Strategies for developing class-wide damages models and mitigating class action risks
- Best practices for defending against and settling class action lawsuits
- The evolving impact of technology on class action litigation
