Boies Schiller Flexner partner Michael Jacobs provided commentary on the Mastercard class action and resulting funder-class representative arbitration in a Law.com International article.
The article explores the growing debate over litigation funding in Britain and whether reforms are needed through the lens of this contentious case. Michael notes, “While it’s tempting to point the finger at funders and claimant law firms for the surge in these claims, large corporations also need to be held to account for anti-competitive conduct that is harmful for consumers.”
