Mr. Jean Saint-Onge, Ad. E., a Litigation partner at Lavery, is pleased with the success of the 11th edition of the National Symposium on Class Actions that was held at the Palais des congrès de Montréal on March 20-21, 2014. The symposium is intended for lawyers practising in this area, for in-house counsel handling litigation cases as well as for those who wish to better acquaint themselves with the latest trends in the area of class actions.
The 2014 edition of the symposium drew 40 speakers from Quebec, Canada and the United States who discussed the most recent case law in this fast-growing area of legal practice, including evidence on the merits with respect to complex litigation, class actions in the telecommunications industry and health law as well as the strategic and practical aspects of asettlement involving multiple defendants.
