The use of class and collective actions worldwide continues to grow and expand into new jurisdictions, particularly across Europe with the implementation of the new Directive on representative actions by EU member states.

Substantive areas that have been particularly active include consumer protection, antitrust, data protection, privacy and securities. Our litigators from across Europe and the U.K. have authored four chapters of Lexology Panoramic: Class Actions 2025, where they provide an assessment of the most recent trends and developments in class and collective actions from France, Italy, the U.K. and across the EU.

The full guide is available here.

The EU chapter was authored by a cross-border team of Tim Sweerts, Julie Metois, Martina Rossi, Monika Murawska, Robert Pavlu and Lauren Rasking.

Erwan Poisson and Julie Metois authored the France chapter.

Martina Rossi authored the Italy chapter.

Russell Butland, Nicholas Gomes, Elliott Glover and Charlotte Page authored the U.K. chapter.

A&O Shearman offers a market leading litigation practice, renowned for handling high value, complex and business critical disputes, including some of the most high profile group litigation and competition class action cases.

The guide was first published by Lexology.
