Member | Stites & Harbison, PLLCThe New Landscape of Class Action Litigation: Risks, Rewards, and Reform | On-Demand CLE Class Action Webinar
Tuesday, August 12, 2025, from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM (ET)
Class action litigation remains one of the most dynamic and challenging areas of law, with critical developments shaping how these cases are brought, certified, and resolved. As courts grapple with unresolved issues such as absent class member standing and the implications of Supreme Court rulings on injunctive relief, both plaintiffs and defendants must adapt to a rapidly shifting legal landscape.
Additionally, data breach litigation continues to fuel a surge in class actions, while new tools and strategies are changing how cases are identified, prosecuted, and defended. Staying ahead requires not only awareness of current trends but also a thoughtful approach to risk and litigation strategy.
Join Chadwick A. McTighe, Member at Stites & Harbison, PLLC, for this CLE class action webinar featuring a timely and practical discussion of key legal developments, strategic litigation tools, and emerging risks in class action practice.
Key Topics:
- The evolving debate over absent class member standing and court circuit splits
- The potential role of class actions in light of Supreme Court limits on nationwide injunctions
- Current litigation trends in data breach class actions and how they are impacting businesses
- New strategies, tools, and tactics for identifying, managing, and defending class actions
- Key risks and potential pitfalls in today’s complex class action environment
Agenda:
Chadwick A. McTighe, Member, Stites & Harbison, PLLC
- The issue of absent class member standing continues to be a hotly-contested one in class actions. With the Supreme Court recently declining to resolve the issue, we’ll discuss the current state of the law and splits among the courts.
- With the ability to issue nationwide injunctions being curtailed by the Supreme Court, class actions have been suggested as a way to accomplish the same basic result. We’ll discuss that possibility.
- Data breaches continue to occur, and class actions inevitably follow. We’ll discuss the current trends.
- New tools and strategies emerge every day to help avoid (or, on the flip side, to find) potential class actions and to defend or prosecute them. We’ll discuss some overall strategic considerations, some tools to consider, and some potential pitfalls to try to avoid.
