Brent W. Landau

Brent Landau is the firm’s Global Managing Partner and an accomplished antitrust lawyer who represents plaintiffs in complex cases. Recently named a "Titan of the Plaintiffs Bar" by Law360, he also has been recognized by Lawdragon as one of the 500 leading lawyers in America, by the National Law Journal as an “Antitrust Trailblazer and Pioneer,” by The Legal Intelligencer as a "Distinguished Leader," and by Super Lawyers as a top attorney in antitrust. The Legal 500 described Brent as “one of the brightest competition attorneys in the Bar” and “very professional and personable.”

Brent’s clients include large and small businesses seeking compensation for price-fixing, monopolization, and other wrongdoing. He has experience in all aspects of litigation, and has obtained significant recoveries in courts throughout the United States.

His representative matters include:

  • In re Air Cargo Shipping Services Antitrust Litigation, in which Brent represented a class of air freight customers that recovered over $1.235 billion in settlements for airline price-fixing. Brent was a principal settlement negotiator and presented both the opening and closing arguments at a multi-day evidentiary hearing on the plaintiffs’ motion for class certification, which the court granted in July 2015. Brent then successfully argued against the defendants’ motions for summary judgment, after which the remaining defendants settled.
  • In re Vitamin C Antitrust Litigation, in which Brent was a member of the trial team that secured a $162 million judgment for vitamin buyers following a jury verdict against defendants who argued they were compelled to fix prices by the Chinese government. When the verdict was challenged on appeal, Brent helped obtain a 9-0 victory in the United States Supreme Court, allowing the case to continue.
  • In re Dental Supplies Antitrust Litigation, in which Brent serves as co-lead counsel for a class of over 100,000 purchasers of dental supplies alleging price-fixing among dental distributors. In August 2018, the parties reached an $80 million settlement.
