"In-house lawyers may not be antitrust specialists, [but] need to learn the basics of antitrust law and how it might apply to their companies."

What Janelle brings to Practical Law:

Janelle keeps in regular contact with her former colleagues at the FTC and in the legal industry to stay up to speed on potential changes, and what antitrust topics would be most beneficial to cover. Her experience as a litigator and a regulator gives her a wide perspective on how antitrust regulation is developing as well as the challenges that antitrust specialists and in-house counsel face in keeping both their clients and companies compliant.

Janelle on antitrust: Keeping compliant means examining interactions with competitors, whether it’s avoiding inadvertent price-fixing or managing strategic projects with competitors. In fact, antitrust issues may arise simply because your company participates in a trade association or engages in cross-industry activities with its competitors. If you’re talking to your competitor and you exchange the ‘wrong’ type of regulatory information, that could raise antitrust concerns.
