Antitrust Competition

SGT litigates the full range of anticompetitive conduct: price-fixing and bid rigging, no-poach and wage-suppression agreements among employers, monopolization and predatory pricing, and other unlawful restraints on competition.

SGT represents plaintiffs in direct-purchaser litigation targeting inflated prices in the pharmaceutical supply chain.

Representing the lead plaintiff in a class of aerospace workers, the firm helped secure $60.5 million in settlements resolving claims that a major defense contractor and several staffing companies agreed not to hire one another's employees in order to suppress wages. In an earlier case, SGT recovered treble damages for a business driven out by predatory pricing.

SGT works with economists and industry experts to prove both the conspiracy and the harm, litigates against big corporations in federal and state courts, and has the resources to sustain multiyear cases through trial and appeal.

A successful antitrust case can recover the overcharges, lost wages, or lost profits that anticompetitive conduct caused. Because the antitrust laws allow for the recovery of up to three times the actual damages, the amounts at stake are often substantial. Recoveries are typically shared among class members according to the harm each suffered.

These cases are brought on behalf of those who share a common injury from the same anticompetitive conduct: consumers who paid inflated prices, workers whose wages were suppressed, or businesses overcharged by a cartel. SGT represents consumers, workers, and businesses nationwide.

SGT litigates cutting-edge antitrust cases and recovers substantial sums for those harmed by anticompetitive conduct.
