Practice Areas

Brendan’s successes include the titanium dioxide antitrust class action ($163.5M settlement); the LCD’s price-fixing litigation ($470M settlement); and the Norvir antitrust litigation. He also performed groundbreaking work in litigation against drug makers for blocking access to affordable generics including the blockbuster brand-name prescription drug Cipro ($399M settlement), and served as lead counsel in the class action antitrust case against Sandoz and Momenta Pharma alleging monopolization of enoxaparin, the generic version of the blockbuster anti-coagulant Lovenox ($120M settlement).

Brendan serves as lead counsel in a proposed class action against one of the largest healthcare systems in America, Atrium Health. The case follows on a civil enforcement action brought by the Department of Justice and the North Carolina Attorney General, which alleged harm to competition caused by anti-competitive terms in Atrium Health’s contracts with insurers.
