PERFECT LAW: GLOBAL CLASS ACTIONS & MASS TORTS CONFERENCE – LONDON, 24 AND 25 APRIL 2025

The Global Class Actions and Mass Torts Conference is a prominent international event focused on collective redress.

Collective redress refers to legal proceedings in which claimants with similar or related interests unite against the same defendant, typically in relation to harm inflicted in a comparable manner.

Injured parties have several avenues available for seeking collective redress. They may collaborate to initiate a group action, enhancing efficiency and reducing costs. Depending on the jurisdiction, both opt-in and opt-out collective actions may be available for large groups of claimants. The suitable type of action will usually depend on the number of claimants involved, the financial stakes, and the specific legal matters at hand.

Collective redress in Europe is currently at a pivotal juncture. Following a period of uncertainty, it has become evident that collective redress or “class action” frameworks are expanding throughout the EU. Most Member States now offer at least one mechanism for claimants to aggregate their claims and pursue damages in national courts.
