Practice Areas

Chris is an experienced litigator, trial lawyer and appellate lawyer whose practice focuses on antitrust litigation, particularly leading the defense of large antitrust class actions, as well as other high-stakes business disputes. In addition to litigating cases from inception, Chris is often brought in by clients who have lost a jury trial and are facing a verdict in the hundreds-of millions or billions of dollars to reverse the outcome. In his antitrust practice, Chris has defended clients across the country against claims of conspiracy, monopolization, attempted monopolization, exclusive dealing, and predatory contracting, bundling and product development practices. Chris also regularly counsels clients on antitrust issues relating to contracting practices, potential acquisitions, and competitor conduct. His clients come from an exceptionally broad range of industries including residential real estate, professional sports, higher education, consumer products, medical devices, transportation, and entertainment. Clients also turn to Chris to lead the defense of their most important litigation matters in substantive areas other than antitrust, including claims for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, wrongful death, product liability, enforcement of foreign judgments, and worker misclassification.
