Baker McKenzie

Drawing considerable praise for its 'meticulous attention to detail' and ability to find 'creative solutions', the cartel group at Baker McKenzie LLP leverages the firm’s global reach to navigate complex cartel investigations, civil litigation, and merger clearance across industries such as luxury fashion, shipping, and security. Co-head Mark Hamer regularly leads on several major antitrust litigation matters and has been described as 'extremely accessible and responsive.' He leads the team alongside the 'excellent' Creighton Macy, who assists clients on all aspects of the antitrust regulatory and litigation process. Brian Burke provides strategic counsel to clients in healthcare, technology, power infrastructure, and telecommunications, while New York-based Jeffrey Martino brings extensive experience in both domestic and international cartel matters, particularly where antitrust and white-collar crime intersect. Ashley Eickhof is a key player in criminal cartel defense, frequently representing clients in federal court. Unless otherwise stated, all mentioned lawyers are based in Washington DC.
