Duane Morris Takeaway: In its review of the Duane Morris Class Action Review – 2024, EPLiC Magazine called it the “the Bible” on class action litigation and an essential desk reference for business executives, corporate counsel, and human resources professionals.
We are humbled and honored by the recent review of the Duane Morris Class Action Review – 2024 by Employment Practices Liability Consultant Magazine (“EPLiC”) – the review is here.
EPLiC said that “The Review must-have resource for in-depth analysis of class actions in general and workplace litigation in particular.”
EPLiC continued that “The Duane Morris Class Action Review analyzes class action trends, decisions, and settlements in all areas impacting corporate America and provides insight as to what companies and corporate counsel can expect to see in 2023 in terms of filings by the plaintiffs’ class action bar and governmental enforcement agencies likes the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the Department of Labor (DOL).”
So how do we do it?
The answer is pretty simple – we live, eat, and breathe class action law 24/7/365.
Every day, morning, and evening, we check the previous day’s filings of class action rulings relative to antitrust class actions, appeals in class actions, arbitration issues in class actions, Class Action Fairness Act issues in class actions, civil rights class actions, consumer fraud class actions, data breach class actions, EEOC-initiated litigation, employment discrimination class actions, Employee Retirement Income Security Act class actions, Fair Credit Reporting Act class actions, wage & hour class actions, labor class actions, privacy class actions, procedural issues in class actions, product liability & mass tort class actions, Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act class actions, securities fraud class actions, settlement issues in class actions, state court class actions, Telephone Consumer Protection Act class actions, and Worker Adjustment and Retraining Act class actions. The Review also has focused appendices on significant sanctions in class actions, the largest attorneys’ fee awards, major settlements across all areas of litigation, the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act and the California Private Attorneys General Act.
We conduct due diligence reviews on a national basis for all of these areas, in both federal courts and in the courts of all 50 states. Then we read and analyze every ruling on Rule 23 certification motions and subsidiary issues throughout federal and state trial and appellate courts. The information is organized in our customized database, which is used to provide the Review’s one-of-a-kind analysis and commentary.
The result is a compendium of class action law unlike any other. Thanks for the kudos EPLiC – we sincerely appreciate it!
We look forward to providing the 2025 Review to all of our loyal readers in early January. In the meantime, check out our first-ever 2024 1st Quarter Class Action Settlement Review blog post here!
