Chicago, Illinois, United States
I am the Managing Partner of K&L Gates' Chicago office. As a partner in K&L Gates’ Antitrust, Competition & Trade Regulation practice group, my practice focuses on multi-district class actions and arbitrations involving a wide spectrum of antitrust and complex commercial litigation issues. I represent numerous global and domestic corporations in a wide variety of federal and state court cases involving antitrust claims under Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act and the Robinson-Patman Act as well as unfair competition and deceptive trade practice claims under numerous state statutes. I regularly counsel clients on competition, mergers and acquisitions, distribution, and sales and marketing practices. http://www.klgates.com/michael-e-martinez/ I am also the Chair of the Chicago Committee on Minorities in Large Law Firms.
