Class Action CLE for In-House Counsel What To Do If You’ve Been Served With a Class Action? Your Earliest Actions May Be the Most Important

Class actions are on the rise, but even experienced in-house counsel may be unfamiliar with the pressing questions that need to be addressed in the litigation’s earliest days. For example, if your class action has been filed in state court, an evaluation as to whether you can (or should) remove the case to federal court is likely to be critical. But you may have just 30 days to make that decision and prepare your filing, with no extensions. This CLE is intended to provide in-house counsel with some of the basic information they need to know - and know fast - before they are served with a class action complaint.
