    Mass Litigation and the Future of Litigation Funding in Ireland and Europe

    By: Oscar Guinea Dyuti Pandya Vanika Sharma Renata Zilli 

    Across Europe, collective actions are on the rise. Expanding liability regimes and the rapid growth of third-party litigation funding (TPLF) are fuelling a new wave of lawsuits that reach far beyond traditional consumer claims. Ireland has until now been shielded by common law restrictions on TPLF, but that protection is weakening.

    By: Fredrik Erixon Oscar Guinea Dyuti Pandya

Recent EU reports already highlight the persistent structural challenges faced by the EU telecommunication sector: market fragmentation, low investment levels, divergent spectrum policies, and an urgent need to bolster digital sovereignty.  However, a critical dimension in...
