Azari will speak on a panel titled, “The New Outlook for Automotive Class Action Litigation: Coattails, Recalls, and Loss of Value/Diminution Cases”.  In this session, attendees will review:

  • How voluntary recalls and NHTSA recalls can morph into class action litigation or similar type of litigation where plaintiffs are grouped together
  • The next wave of “one-off” cases morphing into class action cases
  • The nature of class action claims based on safety, critical architecture, code, or process
  • How automotive settlements are administered, including the latest court requirements for settlement approval

“2019 has set a new standard for automotive product liability litigation,” said Azari.  “This panel will provide insight into the legal and regulatory challenges facing the industry as well as review the increase in automotive class actions and how the federal courts are viewing automotive settlements.”
