Antitrust

Whether successfully leading clients through complex multidistrict litigation cases or negotiating criminal fine reductions in the hundreds of millions of dollars, Rachel Adcox is a standout amongst antitrust practitioners. In the last two years alone, Rachel was named a GCR “Women in Antitrust,” shortlisted for GCR’s “Lawyer of the Year” and “Litigator of the Year,” and named a National Law Journal “Litigation Trailblazer.”

The scope and significance of Rachel’s work is the best illustration of the trust that major corporations place in her skill and judgment. As lead counsel for Tyson Foods in their Broilers, Growers, Pork, and Turkey matters, Rachel’s team has navigated hundreds of individual cases in both federal and state courts, while skillfully managing concurrent regulatory investigations. Rachel currently also leads the defense of Alvogen in the sprawling Generic Drugs MDL, the defense of the Alliance for Safe Online Pharmacies in a treble-damages class action case alleging a group boycott, and the defense of RelayHealth (a wholly-owned subsidiary of McKesson) in class action litigation following an FTC investigation.
