Duane Morris Takeaway: For more than seven decades, class actions have been one of the most effective procedural tools employed by consumers who, had they attempted to vindicate their rights individually, may have been unsuccessful for a variety of reasons. Consumer fraud class actions typically involve a group of consumers who believe they participated in legitimate business transactions, but, due to alleged deceptive or fraudulent practices by a retailer, merchant, or manufacturer, the defendant defrauded the consumers or violated their statutory rights.
Every state has consumer protection laws, and consumer fraud class actions require courts to analyze these statutes both with respect to plaintiffs' claims, and also with respect to choice of law analyses when a complaint seeks to impose liability upon multiple states' consumer protection laws.
To that end, the class action team at Duane Morris is pleased to present a new publication – the 2026 edition of the Consumer Fraud Class Action Review. We hope it will demystify some of the complexities of consumer fraud class action litigation and keep corporate counsel updated on the ever-evolving nuances of these issues. We hope this book – manifesting the collective experience and expertise of our class action defense group – will assist our clients by identifying developing trends in the case law and offering practical approaches in dealing with consumer fraud class action litigation.
