The Directive 2020/1828 on representative actions for the protection of the collective interests of consumers has already been transposed in many EU Member States and is in the process of being transposed in other countries. The Directive improves consumers’ access to justice whilst it also foresees appropriate safeguards to avoid abusive litigation. Our panel will look at some of the countries where the Directive has already been transposed – UK, Romania, Italy and Germany. How might this affect your organisation? We’ll discuss:

• What to expect from these kinds of disputes
• Managing them in the most efficient and effective way 
• Steps that can be taken now

Keep up to date with this changing environment. This webcast will be the first in a series looking at this type of litigation in different jurisdictions and will be of particular interest to legal counsels and in-house lawyers whose companies are present in several European jurisdictions and in the UK.
