The world of class actions is undergoing rapid transformation. Legislative frameworks are evolving and collective litigation is gaining traction, placing more organisations at the centre of complex mass claims.

In season two of the Houthoff podcast series Class Action in Action, defence lawyers from different jurisdictions once again share their insights and expectations for the near future. Together with Dave Cohen, they discuss emerging trends, their profession, and the landmark cases shaping the field.

Roger Cooper is partner at the New York–based and esteemed law firm Cleary Gottlieb, where he leads the securities and M&A litigation practice. While class actions have a long-standing history in the United States, the field continues to evolve. The growing number of cases linked to developments in AI alone shows that this trend is only accelerating.
