I have represented clients in merger and conduct matters before the Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Department of Justice, the European Commission, the German Federal Cartel office and other agencies. Most of my clients are in the Internet and high technology space, such as Apple, Broadcom, Creative Commons, eBay, National Semiconductor, Oracle, Thoratec, and Yahoo!
