  • Work closely with corporate and M&A deal teams throughout the transaction lifecycle
  • Assist with due diligence planning, integration planning, and transaction-related antitrust compliance matters
  • Prepare and manage HSR filings, including gathering information, reviewing supporting materials, and ensuring filing accuracy
  • Advise clients regarding competitive overlaps, market considerations, and supply chain relationships relevant to antitrust review
  • Coordinate with regulators, outside counsel, and transaction stakeholders as needed
  • Assist with Access Letter responses, Second Request investigations, and related regulatory inquiries
Qualifications

  • Significant experience with Hart-Scott-Rodino Act compliance and merger review matters
  • Strong understanding of U.S. antitrust laws as they apply to mergers, acquisitions, and strategic transactions
  • Experience preparing and managing HSR filings
  • Familiarity with Second Requests, Access Letters, and related government investigations
  • Strong analytical, drafting, and communication skills
  • Ability to manage multiple complex matters and work directly with sophisticated clients
  • Experience collaborating with M&A and transactional legal teams
  • Licensed or eligible for admission in the jurisdiction where the candidate will practice
Why Join

This is an exceptional opportunity to join a highly regarded antitrust practice that advises many of the world's leading corporations, investment banks, asset managers, and private equity sponsors on complex transactional and regulatory matters.

Attorneys in this group work closely with nationally recognized practitioners on sophisticated merger review and competition issues while receiving significant responsibility, direct client exposure, and opportunities for continued professional growth.

The firm is known for its collaborative culture, market-leading transactional platform, and commitment to developing attorneys through meaningful and impactful work.
