O'Melveny & Myers LLP’s ‘top notch’ antitrust and competition practice is geared to advise clients on every stage of cartel proceedings, from preliminary investigations through to trial and follow-on civil litigation. Recently, the team has been particularly active in matters related to labor markets, dealing with allegations of no-poach agreements and other hiring practices. The team is co-led by Ian Simmons, who is an expert in multidistrict litigation and is noted for his capabilities at the intersection of antitrust and intellectual property topics, and Ben Bradshaw, who is a key contact for the firm’s financial services clients. Both lawyers are based in Washington DC. In San Francisco, Anna Fletcher and Michael Tubach are recommended for cartel trials, with Turbach’s latest achievements including co-leading a team to achieve a complete acquittal for a former CEO accused of fixing prices for broiler chicken. New York’s Brian Quinn was also a part of that team, and offers notable expertise in both criminal and civil cartel defense matters.
