Since the 1990s, there has been a substantial increase in the number of class action lawsuits filed in federal and state courts. Often these suits are developed in collaboration with plaintiffs' counsel from multiple jurisdictions, and after testing on mock juries. Many of these suits are coordinated with requests for government action against the company and launched with a media blitz. How can you prepare for such an assault, and how should you respond once a complaint is filed? Your legal peers who have survived this new class-action game will identify the plaintiffs' tactics and offer suggestions for early responses as well as long-term strategies in defending class actions. Plus you'll learn strategies on how to reduce risk from such actions and coordinate the activities of your legal department and public relations.
