Career

Daniel Bitton heads Axinn’s West Coast antitrust practice and is a member of the Firm’s Executive Committee. With a strong foundation in both E.U. and U.S. law, Daniel guides clients through complex antitrust litigation, government investigations, and merger clearances across the globe. He is antitrust counsel to major Fortune 500 companies, including Google, McKesson, and Stanley Black & Decker.

Daniel co-leads a team of lawyers defending Google in multiple headline-making, landmark litigations and investigations involving its advertising technology business, including in Virginia, Texas, and New York federal courts. These cases have the potential to reshape the law on monopolization in digital markets not only in the U.S. but internationally, earning significant recognition, including the title of Global Competition Review’s “Behavioural Matter of the Year – Americas.”

His other notable achievements include leading the representation of McKesson and its subsidiaries in class action litigation, parallel Federal Trade Commission (FTC) investigations and litigation, and its joint ventures with HCA Healthcare and Change Healthcare, as well as securing FTC and Department of Justice (DOJ) clearance for numerous other acquisitions. Daniel currently co-leads the representation of McKesson in its $2.49 billion acquisition of a controlling interest in Florida Cancer Specialists’ Core Ventures.

For Stanley Black & Decker, Daniel’s impact is evident in key acquisitions, including the company’s acquisition of a 20% stake in MTD Products Inc., its $1.6 billion acquisition of the remaining 80% stake in MTD Holdings, and its $375 million acquisition of Excel Industries.

Daniel is Chambers-ranked (Band 1, California) and included in The Legal 500 United States and on Lawdragon’s “500 Leading Litigators in America” list. He has also been recognized by the New York Law Journal, The Recorder, and the Daily Journal.
