About

Provided by Sperling Kenny Nachwalter

While plaintiff antitrust cases have recently attracted significant attention from many law firms, they have been our focus for 40+ years. Sperling Kenny Nachwalter lawyers are the pioneers of plaintiff direct action antitrust cases, and we offer more experience in direct action/opt-out plaintiff's litigation than perhaps any other firm in the country. When direct actions are not possible or are impractical, we bring antitrust actions on behalf of putative classes to address harms to competition. We spend considerable professional time on the front end of a potential case thoroughly researching its merits and working hand-in-hand with our economics team to evaluate the case before recommending a course of action to a client.

We excel in monetizing realized and unrealized claims and pursuing redress, and, as a result, we have secured billions in antitrust recoveries for plaintiffs to date. We attribute this success to our experience and strategic approach to litigation, crafting compelling legal theories and practical solutions, conducting rigorous economic analysis, managing discovery efficiently, remaining sensitive to clients’ business relationships, and effectively interacting with clients, adversaries, experts, judges, and juries. We partner with clients to solve business problems through all phases of litigation, at trial, and in arbitrations.
