The Antitrust and Trade Regulation practice currently encompasses matters involving mergers and structural issues, criminal grand jury proceedings, international antitrust enforcement, pricing practices, product distribution, joint ventures, class actions based on federal and state antitrust and unfair competition laws, among many other areas. We represent clients in a wide variety of industries, including healthcare, pharmaceuticals, financial services, aerospace, energy, technology, publishing, distribution, courier and food services.
The firm's Antitrust lawyers both write and speak extensively before various legal, industry and trade groups. Recent publications include a book summarizing California Antitrust and Unfair Competition law and analyses of the DOJ/FTC Competitor Collaboration and Health Care Guidelines. Our Antitrust attorneys include former Antitrust Division lawyers, Federal Trade Commission lawyers, national practice leaders -- including one of the leading antitrust lawyers in the United States (Chambers and Partners) and a California Antitrust Lawyer of the Year (State Bar of California) -- and a former Chair of the Antitrust & Unfair Competition Section of the California State Bar.
