Tim West and Jon Gale from Ashurst in London are joined Nick Mavrakis from Ashurst in Sydney, to discuss emerging trends and issues in Australia’s class action landscape.
With its mature class action regime, Australia is often seen as a harbinger of what’s to come in the UK. So, in this episode of our class action mini-series, we’ve invited Nick Mavrakis from Ashurst’s Sydney office to share the latest highlights and lowdown from Down Under.
Nick discusses the prevalence of shareholder class actions, pharmaceutical claims, product liability, and banking disputes. He emphasises the sophisticated plaintiff’s bar and profitable litigation funding environment that is, in part, driving these actions. Data breach claims are also more prominent, he says, in the wake of rising cyberattacks in Australia and overseas.
In conversation with Tim West and John Gale from Ashurst in London, Nick also discusses the pros and cons of different settlement strategies for class actions. And the trio explore the vexed issue of privacy, including the UK’s Supreme Court case involving Google and a more recent case again involving Google and its AI division, DeepMind.
