November 23, 2016—Robins Kaplan LLP® is pleased to announce that Hollis Salzman, co-chair of the firm’s Antitrust and Trade Regulation Practice, has been named a 2016 Law360 MVP for Competition. This award honors the attorneys who had the biggest wins and made the most significant contributions to their respective practice groups over the past year.
Over the course of her career, Ms. Salzman has acted as co-lead counsel on a number of the world’s largest antitrust cases. She has represented plaintiffs ranging from large to small businesses and individuals against the most sophisticated corporate defendants and defense firms. In more than two decades of standing up for victims of anti-competitive conduct, Ms. Salzman has recovered more than $2 billion in settlements for victims of antitrust cartels.
Notably, Ms. Salzman serves as co-lead counsel in the massive In re Air Cargo Shipping Services Litigation, a decade-long global price-fixing conspiracy to inflate prices of shipping services against major air freight carriers around the world. This past May, Ms. Salzman reached resolution with the last two of nearly three dozen air carriers, pushing the plaintiffs’ total recoveries to over $1.2 billion. Ms. Salzman is also co-lead counsel in In re Automotive Parts Antitrust Litigation—stemming from what the government calls the largest price-fixing conspiracy in U.S. history—in which she has recovered more than $650 million for purchasers of car parts affected by price-fixing agreements.
