Class Actions in Israel 2026: Herzog Contributes to Chambers Global Practice Guide
8 November 2026
From proposed legislative reforms to significant Supreme Court rulings, Israel’s class action landscape continues to evolve, with growing emphasis on balancing access to justice, effective enforcement and the prevention of unfounded claims.
In the 2026 edition of Chambers Collective Redress & Class Actions Global Practice Guide, Herzog’s litigation experts provide a comprehensive overview of Israel’s class action framework, highlighting key legal developments, recent judicial trends and their practical implications.
The chapter examines the proposed reform of Israel’s Class Actions Law, including measures aimed at discouraging frivolous claims, introducing pre-filing notice requirements and strengthening judicial oversight.
It also explores recent Supreme Court decisions reinforcing the requirement for representative plaintiffs to demonstrate a personal cause of action, increasing scrutiny of settlement agreements and attorneys’ fees, and signalling a potentially stricter approach to awarding costs in unsuccessful class action proceedings.
Beyond these developments, the guide offers a practical overview of class action litigation in Israel, covering certification requirements, procedural rules, litigation funding, available remedies and settlement mechanisms.
