ThoughtLeaders4 Disputes: Shareholder Disputes and Class Actions

Jonathan McDonagh will be speaking at ThoughtLeaders4 Disputes ‘Shareholder Disputes and Class Actions’ on Day 2 of the conference at 13:45 PM (Thursday, 25th November 2021).

The conference will be taking place from Wednesday, 24th November – Thursday, 25th November 2021.

With the slew of high-profile cases currently going through the courts, it is predicted that more shareholder lawsuits and collective/class action litigation are on the way. Law firms and consultants are gearing up to meet rising demand.

The opportunity, however, is fraught with risks and disruptions: rapidly evolving case law; a multitude of claimants; conflicting jurisdictional landscape; new products and competition to name a few. To deliver the best results to their clients and successfully navigate this increasingly complex legal area, practitioners must be equipped with the latest tools and remedies and contacts on the ground.

Jonathan will be speaking on a panel discussing Environmental Claims and Class Actions with André Durocher – FASKEN (Canada) and Ana Salamao, PGMBM (UK).

They will be discussing the following topics:

“Class action tourism” and forum shopping
The English Courts and collective redress
Spotlight on environmental class actions in Canada
