Our Approach
Our attorneys are actively involved in sensitive antitrust transactions, investigations, and litigations. We have decades of practice handling some of the most complex matters and we understand that discretion, speed, and efficiency are critical when facing antitrust concerns. We’ve counseled clients on compliance with state and federal antitrust laws, consumer protection laws, and other regulations; helped clients avoid litigation by guiding them through transaction review processes before the DOJ and FTC; and provided successful representation in complex litigation, class action, and unfair / deceptive trade practice matters involving both federal and state competition laws. Our bicoastal team collaborates with the firm's highly regarded litigation, communications, and government relations practices — and a network of local attorneys — to handle antitrust matters nationwide.
