Antitrust Laws in the U.S.

Antitrust law promotes fair competition and prevents corporations from engaging in practices that stifle innovation, harm consumers, or create unfair market advantages.

The key federal statutes governing antitrust law include:

The Sherman Act: Prohibits monopolization, price-fixing, and anti-competitive agreements.
The Clayton Act: Regulates mergers and acquisitions to prevent market dominance.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act: Bans deceptive and unfair business practices that reduce competition.

Many states also have their own antitrust laws that complement federal regulations, and our firm has extensive experience navigating these complex legal frameworks nationwide.

Protein Antitrust

CGL is leading the fight against price-fixing and anti-competitive practices in food product markets. We have pioneered class action lawsuits on behalf of commercial indirect purchasers. Our team recently achieved a first-of-its-kind contested certification for a class of commercial food preparer purchasers in a lawsuit alleging price-fixing in the packaged tuna market.

Our firm also prosecutes various actions involving price-fixing and related horizontal conduct across food markets. Many of these cases address how information sharing and benchmarking services can contribute to anti-competitive practices.
