| Stevens & Lee's Antitrust and Unfair
Competition Group is a natural complement to our firm's focus on consolidation and vertical integration in
a number of industries we regularly represent. Our team of
experienced trial and compliance lawyers counsel clients on issues ranging from
price fixing and bid rigging to unfair competition and try antitrust and unfair
competition cases nationwide. One of our lawyers is an economist as well as a former
senior trial attorney in the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice and
former senior attorney at the Federal Trade Commission. Our antitrust and unfair competition litigation services include prosecuting and defending private treble damage suits, investigations by federal and state authorities and antitrust class actions under the Sherman, Robinson-Patman, FTC and Lanham Acts as well as state unfair competition statutes. Our trade regulation attorneys have successfully represented both plaintiffs and defendants in many civil and criminal litigations brought by the U.S. Department of Justice, the Federal Trade Commission and State Attorneys General nationwide. Because our primary goal is to protect our clients from potential anticompetitive conduct and reduce their risk of potential antitrust and unfair competition lawsuits, we believe strongly that no company should be without a formal antitrust compliance program. We regularly serve as counsel to companies competing in consolidating industries including banking, retail, thrift and insurance, and capital goods manufacturing, as well as health care providers, managed care companies and physician groups. Our
services include comprehensive risk management analyses designed to help our clients
maximize their profits through aggressive marketing and sales efforts while minimizing
their exposure. We also provide antitrust audits and structure compliance policies,
contemporary document management policies and antitrust compliance procedures. |
