Antitrust Membership
Membership Information and Benefits
Benefits of membership in the Antitrust Section
Message from the Section Chair

The Section of Antitrust Law is dedicated to providing its members the people and the resources to enhance their professional development and practices. Our membership is a diverse one, including government, private practice (large and small law firm), corporate, international, and academic, and spans a broad array of professionals and geographies. While our common focus is on antitrust law, we come to it from many perspectives – including fulltime merger or litigation practices as well as those seeking either general background or highly specialized insights into antitrust related issues on a periodic basis. Our programs, publications, networks (listservs and personal connections), research tools (SAL), and committee structures are designed to serve all of these needs. Our goal is to provide a community of colleagues sharing a common zeal for excellence in our profession and the means to enhance expertise.
This page is dedicated to you – whether you are a new member, one considering membership, or a longstanding one seeking advice on member benefits. On this page, and elsewhere on the Section website, are the people and the resources – and links to them, that can assist you. Welcome to the Section of Antitrust Law!
