From privacy class actions and mass arbitrations to nationwide product liability suits, complex-litigation risks are changing—and so are the strategies for mitigating them. This presentation distills lessons from recent high-stakes cases and arbitrations that in-house counsel can apply immediately. We’ll highlight litigation trends in privacy and product liability, explain how website structures, disclosures, and policies can strengthen defenses at the class-certification stage, and show why carefully drafted arbitration agreements remain a crucial shield.
But we won’t stop at doctrine. In-house lawyers will walk away with practical strategies for reducing privacy and product liability exposure before a complaint ever arrives, along with playbooks for navigating the first 30 days after service. We’ll also look at how cross-functional teams—well beyond the litigation group—can position companies to avoid costly missteps and achieve better outcomes. This is not just a recap of cases; it’s a toolkit for protecting your company day-to-day and preparing for when mass litigation inevitably hits.
