Paul Hastings LLP offers a global antitrust and competition team made up of transactional and regulatory experts, with a range of government and in-house experience. It regularly guides mergers through HSR multi-jurisdictional reviews, and defends clients in litigation brought by both the federal government and private parties. Michael Murray co-chairs the practice from Washington DC, leveraging experience as part of the Department of Justice Antitrust Division in his work in antitrust litigation. Alongside Murray in DC, co-chair Ryan Phair also focuses his practice on antitrust litigation. In San Francisco, Bo Pearl is a go-to for clients in the sports, technology, and healthcare sectors. The team was bolstered in October 2024 by the addition of Benjamin Snyder, formerly of the Department of Justice. Michael Wise departed the team in November 2024.
