Practice Areas

Antitrust

We consult on antitrust matters covering a wide array of antitrust issues such as price fixing, attempted monopolization, market power boycotts, loyalty discounts, predatory pricing, competitor exclusions, dealer restraint, tying and bundling, and cases concerning Most Favored Nations clauses. We are also well versed in antitrust issues associated with intellectual property including determination of Fair, Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory (FRAND) royalties in standard-setting organizations, as well as false advertising, false and misleading statements, and unlawful, unfair, and fraudulent business practices.

Identifying anti-competitive activity and quantifying its effects requires rigorous empirical analysis of real-world activity to answer the difficult questions. We have the tools and expertise it takes to accurately assess the degree of competition evident between firms within a market, and to measure how that market might have operated under competition.
