1 Eliot G. Disner, Antitrust Law for Business Lawyers: Questions, Answers, Law, and Commentary [i] (2001)

handle is hein.ali/antbly0001 and id is 1 raw text is: ANTITRUST LAW FOR BUSINESS LAWYERS Questions, Answers, Law, and Commentary Eliot G. Disner The antitrust laws are shot through with inconsistency, incon- gruity, and incomprehensibility. So writes Eliot G. Disner in Antitrust Law for Business Lawyers, his latest work. In spite of the many conceptual problems to be found in the antitrust laws, there are some basic precepts which, if understood, can help make sense of it all. That is the goal of this book-to help business lawyers understand the complex world of antitrust law. But that is only the beginning. A brilliant disquisition on the competing theories of the deter- mination of market share delivered to a perplexed client will probably only elicit the response, Okay-so what do I do now? Casting aside theory, Eliot Disner spends most of this book answering the what do I do now? questions, so you can give your clients the advice they need in a business world that faces new and dangerous antitrust challenges. Questions such as: How can suppliers determine competitors' prices? Should they do so at all? If they do so, how can they respond to those prices? When does cutting off a nonpaying customer pose real antitrust liability threats? When your customers are also your competitors, can you send them your new price list? If so, when? When can competitors jointly promote their products? Are safety standards safe? (The answer may surprise you!) What can you do at trade association meetings, and when is it time to bolt from the room? What factors should govern the selection of new customers- and what factors should be ignored? When can a hospital deny privileges to a doctor? Why should suppliers be very careful when they decide to dis- count prices for selected customers? Are lower production costs a good enough reason for the price cut? Lower freight costs? (Continued on inside back cover)
