About James J. Calder
James Calder represents clients across the full range of antitrust and competition law matters. He tries to give intensely practical guidance that makes business sense and is easy to follow. He has worked with hundreds of companies, across more than 50 industries, on antitrust litigations, investigations, mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and joint ventures. He also has an extensive antitrust counseling practice. Approximately one-third of his work is international. He also represents clients in connection with foreign investments in US businesses, where the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) clearance is needed.
Antitrust advice that prioritizes business goals
