Title: Conflict of Interest in the Certification of a Collective Action for Damages Financed by a Law Firm
Abstract: The paper examines the conflict of interest in the funding of a collective action for damages by the lawyer representing the claimant in the action and its impact on the certification of the action. The author starts by outlining the general rules governing the certification of collective actions for damages and the purpose of such certification. The author then introduces the conflict of interest inherent in lawyer-financing of collective actions for damages and applies this to the fulfilment of the representativeness test by each claimant through the prism of outsourcing the fulfilment of the representativeness conditions to a third party (or lawyer). The author then introduces the system of safeguards in the financing of collective actions and discusses the need for these requirements to be met in the case of lawyer-financing of collective actions for damages.
Keywords: collective action for damages, representativeness, conflict of interest, financing of collective action, lawyer financing, agency problem, certification of collective action
