Antitrust Violations

Federal Criminal Defense Attorney in Los Angeles

One of America's greatest accomplishments and sources of pride as a country is our free market. With a lack of monopolies and the existence of competition in the market, consumers have choices. They can choose to purchase an item from a company because they believe its price matches its worth, and likewise they can deny business to companies that they believe charge too much for their products or services.

What would happen if the free market was not defended by law? Companies would make mass mergers, monopolizing areas of the market so that consumers have no choice but to pay the prices said companies demand. Fortunately, such actions are against the law, and if you believe anyone is guilty of price fixing, allocating customers or seeking unlawful mergers with the intent of building a monopoly, you may be able to fight for justice with the aid of a Los Angeles federal criminal defense attorney.

Anticompetitive Practices

Antitrust laws are violated when a company performs any kind of anticompetitive practice, such as dumping, exclusive dealing, price fixing, limit pricing or tying. When a company sells a product or service for a price significantly below the average market price with the intent of driving competitors out of business, they are guilty of dumping. Exclusive dealing is when a retailer or wholesaler is under contract to only make purchases from one supplier. When companies conspire to set their prices in a way that affects their competitors, the act is referred to as a crime of price fixing. Limit pricing occurs when a monopoly sets the price of a product so low that competitors are discouraged from entering the market because profit is nearly impossible. Also, when two unrelated products are required to be purchased together, it is called tying.
