Antitrust

Zelle Hofmann attorneys have been practicing antitrust litigation and counseling for over 30 years. We represent plaintiffs and defendants in price-fixing, monopolization, mergers and acquisitions, restraint of trade, distribution and price discrimination cases, including both individual cases and class actions. We have practiced in federal and state courts and administrative agencies throughout the country. Zelle Hofmann attorneys represent consumers, small businesses, multi-national corporations, and state and national plaintiff classes. We are experienced in counseling clients on a wide variety of non-litigation antitrust matters, including, among others, issues related to antitrust compliance programs, mergers and acquisitions, Robinson-Patman Act matters, and the formation and operation of joint ventures. We have represented parties in patent infringement cases involving claims or defenses asserting antitrust violations. We also represent corporate plaintiffs which elect to opt-out of class actions, and have obtained significantly greater recoveries on their behalf than obtained by class plaintiffs.
