About Our Antitrust Team: Antitrust investigations and litigation—whether involving proposed mergers and acquisitions (M&A) or allegations of anticompetitive conduct—require clear, expert economic analysis. For decades, Secretariat’s antitrust economists have delivered exactly that. With experience in more than 1,400 antitrust matters across nearly every industry and a collective deal value exceeding $500 billion, our experts are trusted for their clarity and credibility.

When antitrust disputes arise, effective economic testimony is essential. Secretariat’s experts excel at presenting understandable, persuasive analyses to judges, juries, and arbitrators. We provide clear testimony in cases involving price fixing, bid rigging, monopolization, and more. Whether addressing class certification, damage estimation, or competitive harm, our experts integrate rigorous economic reasoning with relevant legal standards, case law, and the unique facts of each case.
