Actual or alleged conduct by intellectual property owners may give rise to private antitrust cases or actions by competition enforcement agencies. Antitrust issues may arise when, for example, patent, copyright, or trademark owners are alleged to have anticompetitively exploited their IP rights or, in the merger context, when intellectual property rights may be alleged to constitute a barrier to entry. CRA offers a team of world-class economists who specialize in the economics of antitrust and intellectual property.
We have provided oral and written expert testimony in hundreds of legal disputes involving intertwined IP and antitrust issues including, patent misuse, Fair, Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory (FRAND) royalties, pay-for-delay and reverse payments, and Walker process and other antitrust counterclaims.
