About Our Antitrust Team Antitrust investigations and litigation—whether involving proposed mergers and acquisitions (M&A) or allegations of anticompetitive conduct—require clear, expert economic analysis.

We provide clear testimony in cases involving price fixing, bid rigging, monopolization, and more.
