US markets covered

Antitrust and competition practice sits at the intersection of economics, litigation strategy, and regulatory scrutiny — a market where a narrow pool of genuinely qualified lawyers commands significant attention from Am Law firms, boutiques, and the enforcement bar alike.

Sartori & Partners maps 2,000+ antitrust and competition lawyers across the United States, spanning the full spectrum from Antitrust Litigation trial teams to Unfair Competition specialists. That depth of market intelligence means we identify talent that is not actively searching, assess competitive positioning accurately, and move with the discretion this practice demands.

Whether a firm is building enforcement-side capability, strengthening a merger review team ahead of a surge in regulatory activity, or a senior litigator is weighing a lateral move, we bring a structured, evidence-led approach to every search — never a generic shortlist, always a defensible recommendation grounded in how this specific market actually moves.

Counsel whose file is pharmaceutical — pay-for-delay settlements, Orange Book listings, and pharmacy-benefit cases — are recruited on the pharma antitrust page.
