Webinar: Understanding The Growing Risk of Group Litigation and Class Actions in the UK

Collective litigation – once a US phenomenon – is now reshaping the UK legal landscape. Over the past decade, claims have surged, driven by legislative and procedural changes, evolving court attitudes, the rise of litigation funding, and claimant-focused law firms with strong US roots. These firms are actively generating claims, and the headlines show the impact across sectors – consumer, manufacturing, tech, pharma, and utilities.

For in-house counsel, this is more than a trend. It’s a growing risk that demands foresight:

• Where are the vulnerabilities for your organisation?
• What steps can you take before litigation begins?

In this ACC Europe and Squire Patton Boggs partnership webinar, leading external and in-house counsel will share:

• The developments already shaping the litigation landscape
• Trends to expect in the next few years
• Practical strategies to resist or defend collective claims

This session is designed to give you clear, actionable insights to protect your business at the pre-litigation stage and strengthen your position before disputes escalate.

Secure your place and gain the knowledge to stay ahead of this rising risk.
