Duane Morris LLP has announced the publication of its Energy, Oil, and Gas Class Action Review - 2026, a comprehensive resource examining the evolving landscape of class action litigation across the energy sector. The new release provides energy industry clients and stakeholders with timely, in-depth analysis of the trends, theories, and procedural developments shaping class action exposure in the United States.

Class action activity affecting the energy industry has continued to expand across a range of subject areas, from environmental and consumer claims to labor and employment disputes and matters involving complex regulatory frameworks. The review is designed to help energy, oil, and gas companies understand where claims are emerging, how courts are responding, and which defense strategies are proving effective in the current environment. It offers strategic guidance intended to support informed decision-making at every stage, from early risk assessment through dispositive motion practice and beyond.
For energy sector clients, the publication serves as a forward-looking tool for navigating an increasingly active class action environment. By drawing together developments from across jurisdictions, the review highlights the issues most likely to influence litigation strategy and corporate risk profiles in the year ahead. It also reinforces the importance of integrated counsel that combines industry knowledge with seasoned class action defense capabilities.
Duane Morris's broader class action practice continues to support clients across multiple industries, and the 2026 energy-focused review reflects the firm's ongoing investment in delivering substantive, accessible guidance on complex litigation issues.
