The Class Action Weekly Wire
The Duane Morris Class Action Defense Blog presents the Class Action Weekly Wire podcast: Due to the growth of class action litigation over the past decade, counsel for defendants and plaintiffs alike have become more sophisticated, the statutory authority and case law precedents have continued to evolve, and parties on both sides have expanded their arsenal of tools to pursue and to defend these cases. As a result, class action litigation entails ever-changing guideposts, new playbooks, and innovation. Our show delivers weekly episodes featuring insights and analysis of the latest class action cases and trends with some of the nation’s most experienced attorneys in defending class action litigation. Guest speakers share their expertise on case law, significant settlements, and developing trends in all areas of class action litigation, including artificial intelligence, antitrust, arbitration, biometric privacy, consumer fraud, cybersecurity, wage & hour, privacy, product liability & mass tort, and EEOC strategy and litigation.
