Littler Mendelson’s Class Action Summit is at the forefront of opposition to the rise of damaging class action lawsuits, which are affecting employers in every industry. This program will provide the most current and critical information regarding how courts have implemented the landmark Supreme Court decisions in Dukes and Concepcion, and what these decisions mean for employers facing reductions-in-force, pay equity issues, misclassification questions, age and disability discrimination suits, and other workplace challenges. The Summit is sponsored by Littler’s Class Action Avoidance and Defense Practice Group.
The event will take place over the course of two days, kicking off with a welcome lunch at noon on Monday, October 22nd, followed by program sessions centering on the Dukes case. A reception and dinner will be held that evening, where guests will have the chance to network with peers, Littler attorneys, and guest speakers. The following day, our focus will be on the Concepcion decision, and the uses and limitations of arbitration agreements as a means of precluding class action litigation. Throughout the Summit, guests will also have the opportunity to discuss specific issues and concerns that employers are facing.
