Webinar - Class Action in Europe – developments towards a “new normal” in litigation in light of the directive (EU) 2020/1828

The instrument of class action has for a long time been not familiar to most of the European countries. Still, the European Union has decided to make use of this instrument in a more widespread way if it comes to the collective interests of consumers with Directive (EU) 2020/1828 of the European Parliament and the Council of 25th November 2020 (in force since the 24th December 2020). Now, Directive 2020/1828 has to be implemented in national regulations no later than the 25th December 2022.

This new directive is a perfect opportunity for reviewing the current situation within Europe. On this webinar you will learn how class actions are handled in very prominent jurisdictions like Spain and Portugal, the United Kingdom, Italy and Austria. You will learn that the instrument of class action is even rooted within the Roman law. Furthermore, the US based forensic accountant firm Lowers Forensics International will explain precious insights on how to prepare a class action.

The webinar is hosted by Insuralex. Insuralex is a group created by independent law firms that specialise in Insurance and Reinsurance coverage, defence, litigation and all other related legal services with over 50 member firms dedicated to the Insurance and Re-Insurance industry. Belzuz Abogados S.L.P. is proud and exclusive member of Insuralex in Spain and in Portugal.

We will review this new directive and how it might influence class actions not only within consumers’ rights but also within the insurance industry.
