The 10th anniversary edition of the Carlton Fields Class Action Survey reveals that the number of companies facing class actions is the highest in a decade, and corporate counsel report an increasing number of complex class action matters. U.S. class action spending is growing at more than twice the rate of other litigation spending, reaching a new high of $2.9 billion in 2020.
Hosted in conjunction with the National Bar Association-Commercial Law Section, this interactive program will engage the participants in identifying and discussing best practices in reducing cost and managing risk in class action litigation. Program panelists also will review the type and frequency of class actions reported in the survey, including how COVID-19 has affected the landscape of class action litigation, and will summarize key recent developments in the law, identifying the most successful defenses to class certification as reported by corporate counsel at more than 400 companies.
