Ethics in Class Actions and Complex Litigation addresses ethics and rules of professional responsibility involving class actions and other complex litigation. Gain guidance on conflicts of interest, class action settlements, third-party litigation financing and other ethical issues facing complex litigation practitioners.
Publisher: Matthew Bender
International Order InquiryParticipants and their attorneys in complex litigation in general, and in class actions in particular, lack sufficient ethical guidance. The Model Rules of Professional Conduct and state codes that derive from them have relatively little to say about how the ethics rules apply in complex litigation. Ethics in Class Actions and Complex Litigation provides analyses and guidelines for litigators engaged in class actions and other complex litigation and addresses conflicts of interest, communication with absent members, third-party litigation financing, court-appointed neutrals, settlement issues and third-party filer services.
Drawing on the experience of practitioners in complex antitrust class actions, multidistrict litigation, antitrust and appellate law, Ethics in Class Actions and Complex Litigation serves as a one-stop resource on ethics for practitioners engaged in class action and complex litigation. The title explores professional responsibility issues involving communications with absent class members, court-appointed neutrals, attorneys’ fees, reimbursement of costs, service awards to class representatives, cy pres distributions, objections to class action settlements and third-party filer services.
