European companies are increasingly being sued in the United States. By seeking US jurisdiction, plaintiffs' lawyers try to take advantage of the potentially huge amounts of damages obtainable in a US court. Often such actions are set up as class actions. Thus European lawyers will need to learn more about the class actions in order to advise their clients correctly. In this book, the author attempts to explain the structure and the proceedings of the class action as well as its legal, cultural and economic background. She also analyzes problems of representative suits in a more general sense and offers suggestions for the development and improvement of collective actions in German and other legislation.
