Business Litigation

Antitrust

Compliance with antitrust and competition laws is a growing concern as businesses increasingly rely on beneficial alliances and efficiency-enhancing agreements.

With valuable insights and hands-on experience with antitrust agencies, we help clients a coordinated and efficient approach to resolving matters before these agencies and tribunals. Our litigators cover the full range of antitrust counseling and litigation, including pricing, distribution, intellectual property, and civil and criminal investigations. These investigations have involved claims or charges of participation in price-fixing conspiracies, horizontal market allocations, group boycotts, monopolization, anticompetitive licensing of intellectual property, and price discrimination. We also analyze and obtain clearance for merger transactions from the Federal Trade Commission, Department of Justice, and foreign competition authorities and represent third parties wishing to object to mergers before these authorities.

Representative Matters

Defended multinational branded pharmaceutical company in litigation filed by state attorney general seeking overcharge damages for alleged anticompetitive pricing of pharmaceutical products.

Spring Air mattress manufacturers and licensees—Antitrust MDL

Served as plaintiffs’ counsel for more than a dozen Spring Air mattress manufacturers and licensees in the favorable settlement of a federal MDL against several domestic and international manufacturers of polyurethane foam. We sought damages and injunctive relief from defendants pursuant to §1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act alleging that, for more than a decade, defendants engaged in a conspiracy to fix the price of polyurethane foam used in our mattress products.

Solid waste hauler—Dismissal of Sherman Act claims

Represented a commercial solid waste hauler against Sherman Act claims of predatory pricing and attempted monopolization brought by competitors in the Southern District of New York; secured dismissal of all claims on summary judgment.
