Lovells has a long history of advising clients on all areas of class actions, group actions and multi-claim litigation.
Our Class Actions Unit is comprised of a focused group of dispute resolution lawyers from our international network providing clients with co-ordinated advice across multiple jurisdictions.
The Unit acts as a contact point for clients on class action issues and keeps a watching brief on legislative and case developments. We have experience in advising on a number of areas including:
- alien tort claims
- anti-trust and competition law
- banking
- capital markets and securities law
- employment discrimination
- environmental law
- financial services and regulatory matters
- fund issues
- product liability
- international fraud and insolvency
- pension and trust
The Unit is co-ordinated from our London office by Neil Mirchandani, a disputes partner in our Financial Institutions practice. In addition to a core team from Lovells’ main European offices, the Unit includes partners from our US offices who provide cutting edge experience of a market where the concept of class actions is firmly embedded.
