Is increased litigation on the horizon?

As society and the business community alike continue to grapple with COVID-19, Chair of the firm’s Litigation and Dispute Resolution practice Linda Plumpton told The Lawyer’s Daily that we’re “on the cusp” of years of litigation.

“My experience has been, in my practice, that significant global events are almost always followed by litigation, and I expect that COVID is no exception,” Linda said.

“You look at the tech bubble bursting in the early 2000s, then the Great Recession in 2008. … I expect that the COVID trend will be similar, and we're already seeing that play out in a number of areas. My own view is that we're really just on the cusp of what will probably be years of litigation to follow.”
