Fielding a team of ‘responsive, aggressive, and very smart’ attorneys, Axinn Veltrop & Harkrider is well positioned to take on the gamut of antitrust defenses, including MDLs and treble-damage litigation arising out of price fixing and monopolization allegations, including standout work for Google, among others. Washington DC’s Michael Keeley leads the group, specializing in disputes that concern both antitrust and IP issues, such as patent jury cases, and is also sought after for representation in relation to monopolization. ’Stand-out trial lawyer’ Denise Plunkett is noted for her representation of payments and other financial services clients in antitrust litigation out of New York. Made partner in January 2024, Kail Jethmalani maintains a practice covering civil antitrust suits with defense of clients before the FTC and foreign competition regulators. DC-based Kenina Lee brings experience of FTC procedure relating to pharmaceutical sector mergers to the practice.
