Janet
L.
McDavid
Partner, Washington, D.C.
Janet McDavid focuses on antitrust, competition, and trade regulation, with a particular emphasis on government investigations, litigation, and antitrust policy issues. She is a Part Chair of the ABA Antitrust Section and provided transition advice on the Federal Trade Commission to the Obama, Bush, and Clinton Administrations.
Jan has been profiled in numerous international surveys and rankings and is widely recognized as a leading authority in antitrust law. Most recently, she was named as "one of the finest antitrust lawyers around" and lauded for her "... very good judgment and practical advice," by Who's Who Legal. Other industry authorities, such as Chambers USA, have noted client praise for her strong ties to the government: "In terms of working with the agencies, she is terrific." Clients say Jan "understands how business people operate" and describe her as "the cream of the crop" with "one of the best reputations at the antitrust bar." Jan is also a frequent speaker on antitrust issues around the globe.
Jan is the author and co-author of many books and articles involving antitrust law, including the Antitrust Evidence Handbook, Mergers & Acquisitions and Antitrust & Trade Associations Practice Guide, both published by the ABA Antitrust Section; Proposed Reform of the EU Merger Regulation: A U.S. Perspective; Merger Review Processes in the United States and the European Union: A Comparison; How to Avoid Negotiations on Second Requests; Globalization and the EU; Globalization of Premerger Notification and Review: Practical Problems and Solutions; Antitrust Law: Intersection with IP; Antitrust and IP: Joint Agency Hearings; The Defense of Mergers in the Defense Industry; Antitrust Issues in Health Care Reform; and The 1992 Horizontal Merger Guidelines: A Practitioner's View of Key Issues in Defending a Merger.
