Class action lawsuits, which can be joined easily with minimum financial and time costs, pose financial and reputation risks for businesses. In this case, a smart strategy is vital, since the outcome of subsequent individual claims on a similar subject of dispute against the company depends on the results of the class action lawsuit.
A class action lawsuit can be a dangerous tool in competition because competitors can take advantage of such a dispute and provide the group with funding, PR and legal support, which will complicate the dispute significantly for the defendant.
