In this podcast, we explore class actions procedures and trends in the US, and what similarities and differences there are with England and Wales. The episode is hosted by Alan Watts, a partner in our disputes team in London and joint head of our global class actions group. He is joined by two disputes partners in our New York office who have extensive experience of dealing with class action litigation: Eileen Patt, who focuses on advertising disputes, and Maxwell Herman, who focuses on product liability and ESG litigation. This is the first in a 'mini-series' of two episodes. We will be back with a second episode exploring the class actions landscape in Australia.
