From day-to-day antitrust counseling and compliance to crucial bet-the-company litigation, you’ll represent companies at all stages of the corporate life cycle on deeply interesting—and critically important—legal issues.
Your work could encompass mergers and acquisitions, criminal and civil investigations by government agencies, antitrust litigation, counseling clients on matters concerning competition, and issues involving intellectual property, consumer protection, and privacy. You will be a trusted partner to your clients, advising them on competition issues through many phases of their corporate trajectory. And you’ll work across departments at Wilson Sonsini to provide the best advice from a variety of practice areas, industries, and perspectives.
You’ll learn the ins and outs of U.S. and global competition regulations from former officials who served in senior-level roles at the U.S. and European agencies. You’ll represent highly innovative tech and life sciences clients on the most complex antitrust matters in the field. You’ll take the lead on investigations as a junior associate and collaborate with your mentors to deliver the best results for your clients on the most complex legal matters in the field.
And you’ll collaborate across time zones with colleagues in New York, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, London, and Brussels to deliver client successes as part of a winning team.
“Perhaps the best antitrust and competition practice for high-tech matters in the world.”
