Suzanne Chiodo is an Assistant Professor at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto. She has published numerous articles and book chapters on mass torts and class proceedings in the UK and Canada, as well as The Class Actions Controversy, an award-winning book on class actions reform in Canada. She is currently the only academic member of the Civil Rules Review Working Group, which has been tasked with fundamentally reforming Ontario’s Rules of Civil Procedure.
Suzanne has a DPhil in law from Oxford, where her thesis compared the Canadian class actions regime with the nascent and rapidly transforming class actions and mass tort landscape in the UK, and where she co-organized one of England’s first class actions conferences. Prior to that, she practiced as a class actions lawyer in Toronto, working in a wide variety of areas including competition, securities, negligence, consumer protection, privacy, and claims against the Crown.
The Global Class Actions and Mass Torts Conference is a prestigious international event that focuses on the concept of collective redress, which refers to legal mechanisms that allow a large group of individuals who have suffered similar harm or injury to pursue their claims together as a single entity.
