EU GDPR Litigation in Practice - Unlocking New Revenue Streams for Law Firms in ROI

Introduction

Specifically designed for litigators, fee earners and legal support staff in Ireland, this virtual classroom seminar identifies current litigation opportunities, mass claims and litigation tourism using GDPR, including new revenue streams for law firms.

It also provides an update of current caselaw, including Dillon v Irish Life Assurance plc., mass GDPR claims, plus recoverable heads of damages and future data protection litigation.
