Knoxville Federal & State Antitrust Laws
Attorneys Protecting the Business Landscape From Unfair Practices
Antitrust laws have long been a crucial means of maintaining an even playing field in the world of commerce. They are designed to protect both consumers and competing businesses against monopolization and price fixing. If you are a business owner, these laws affect you in two ways:
- First, you are obligated to comply with all pertinent antitrust laws.
- Second, if a competitor fails to comply with antitrust laws, you have the opportunity to pursue legal recourse.
