Antitrust

Antitrust laws exist to ensure that businesses compete against each other in a reasonable and fair way. Federal and state laws forbid anti-competitive behavior and unfair business practices that damage other businesses and consumers. Examples of these unlawful, anti-competitive practices include:

• Predatory pricing: A dominant company temporarily prices a product low enough to end a competitive threat from other businesses in order to protect market share.
• Bid-rigging: Bidders agree in advance of the bidding process to designate a particular member to win what was intended to be a competitive bid.
• Monopolization: A company dominates a market or service to the ruling out of others.

Private antitrust lawsuits are often brought as class actions. Class actions allow hundreds or thousands of individuals or businesses that are injured by the same anti-competitive behavior to prosecute litigations in a single court. Class actions avoid duplicative time, effort and expense involved in prosecuting many individual actions.
