Episode: Anxiety and class action - the limits and risks
Description: In the fifth episode of our podcast series on Product Liability, Jacques-Antoine Robert and David Kidman delve into the complexities of anxiety damage within the context of class actions and discuss cases of law in different sectors. They navigate the contrasting landscapes of the UK, where claimants have generally struggled with product liability group litigation, and France, where class actions can be initiated by patient organisations and where claimants were sometimes compensated for both physical injury and anxiety damage.Â
