Let’s Talk PAGA: Navigating Shifting Case Law, New Theories, and Defense Strategies

This presentation is the first of a five-part series of mini-webinars where Seyfarth litigators team up to discuss the evolving landscape of Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”) claims.  We kick-off the series with PAGA Peculiarities, which will cover:

  • PAGA standing and “aggrieved employees.”
  • The differences between PAGA representative and Rule 23 class actions.
  • The rise of “PAGA-only” complaints.
  • Civil penalties and assessing PAGA exposure.

Speakers:
Geoffrey Westbrook, Partner, Seyfarth Shaw
Daniel Whang, Partner, Seyfarth Shaw
Shireen Wetmore, Associate, Seyfarth Shaw
