The OsgoodePD Annual Symposium on Class Actions features a national faculty of leading class action practitioners on the forefront of today’s leading class action cases and hot button issues.  They aim to critically examine and guide attendees through the many complexities of class action litigation.

• Tips and traps when negotiating settlements
• Key learnings from Indian Residential Schools (IRS) and Infineon class action settlements
• The details of the IRS and Infineon notice plans

“Class actions are still booming in Canada and high profile cases continue to be filed each year,” said Bruneau.  ”Attendees at this symposium oversee some of the most complex and widely-publicized cases in the country.  This symposium presents an opportunity to bring together experts in this space to discuss the practical reality and logistics of issuing a high volume of payments – a mandate that presents unique challenges even the most experienced lawyers seek to learn about or improve upon.”
