The Co-Chair of the firm’s Antitrust and Competition Practice, Ian Simmons has been lead counsel in more than 35 multi-district litigation (MDL) antitrust proceedings and has achieved precedent-setting results. With 33 years of experience in antitrust litigation, Ian is one of a few lawyers listed in the Commercial Litigation Global Leader and Competition Thought Leader Who’s Who Legal directories and in Chambers. He is an alumnus of the Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division.
In addition to his extensive experience with cartel cases, Ian litigates matters involving intellectual property issues, including the competitive implications of standard essential patents and FRAND obligations. He has argued before the US Court of Appeals for the Second, Third, Fourth (twice), Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Ninth (twice) and Tenth Circuits, and the highest courts in New York and South Dakota. Ian has tried seven cases to verdict and has taken more than 30 expert economist depositions. He is currently lead counsel for BH Management Inc. in In re: Realpage, Inc., Rental Software Antitrust Litigation (No. II), and for Asiana Airlines in the Korean Air Lines/Asiana merger.
An expert in the doctrine at the intersection of intellectual property and antitrust law, including FRAND and the law of Standard Setting Organizations, Ian represented Samsung as an amicus in Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) v. Qualcomm, a filing whose content made its way into the District Court opinion denying Qualcomm’s motion to dismiss. In 2020, Ian represented 46 of the Nation’s top antitrust scholars in a Ninth Circuit amicus brief in support of the FTC in its Qualcomm appeal. Ian currently represents the Fair Standards Alliance in matters involving standard essential patents and he moderated a panel on the antitrust analysis of standard essential patents at the 2021 American Bar Association Spring Meeting in Washington DC.
Ian’s career evinces several “firsts”:
- he was trial counsel in the first jury trial price fixing case to attack a wholly foreign conspiracy;
- he argued and won in the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in what it called “a case of first impression” on the preemption of state antitrust laws;
- he is counsel to Bitcoin.com and Roger Ver in the first antitrust case involving crypto currency; and he is counsel to Samsung Bioepis in the first “pay for delay” case involving biosimilars;
- he was counsel to American Airlines (successor in interest to US Airways) in the first jury trial of a two-sided market case under the rubric of the Supreme Court opinion in Ohio v. Am. Express Co.,201 L. Ed. 2d 678, 138 S. Ct. 2274 (2018); and
- In 2019, the National Law Journal, in recognizing the DC office as litigation department of the year, singled out the $3 billion summary judgment victory for Samsung Electronics. Ian’s results have been recognized by Law360, which named Ian an MVP of the Year in Competition.
Who’s Who Legal highlights Ian’s “superb attention to detail, excellence in written and oral advocacy and subtle judgement on strategy,” noting that peers and clients consider him “a super smart litigator with great instincts.” “Ian is an excellent lawyer: creative, smart and strategic.” “He has a strong grasp of the economics of the case at hand.” Chambers USA regularly ranks Ian for his work in antitrust litigation, and notes his “fine reputation for his multijurisdictional cartel defense work” and reports that clients describe him as “outstanding and incredibly skilled,” commend his “detail-oriented work,” and praise his “encyclopedic knowledge.” Ian is consistently recognized for his work in antitrust by The Legal 500, which labels him a “star of the antitrust bar” along with O’Melveny’s team as “top-drawer,” and by Global Competition Review who lauded him for his Samsung victory against Qualcomm in 2017 and shortlisted him for “Litigator of the Year” at the 2015 Global Competition Review awards. Ian was also named a 2017 Antitrust Trailblazer by the National Law Journal, a leading lawyer by Who’s Who Legal: Litigation in 2017, and a competition expert by Who's Who Legal: Competition in 2018.
Ian defeated class certification on a multi-billion-dollar price fixing claim involving Optical Disk Drives in the Northern District of California against Samsung and other major technology companies and obtained a highly significant victory for Asiana Airlines Inc. in long-running antitrust litigation, which extinguished hundreds of millions of dollars of potential exposure. Ian also represented Marriott International in an antitrust MDL involving online travel company booking; the complaint was dismissed with prejudice.
A nine-time moderator or panelist at the American Bar Association Antitrust Spring meeting, and author of over 20 peer review articles, Ian is a Member of the Editorial Board of the American Bar Association Antitrust Magazine.
Ian is a Senior Lecturing Fellow at Duke University Law School.
- BH Management Services. Ian is counsel to BH Management, one of the largest multi-family residential property management firms in the US, in the multi-district litigation In re RealPage, Inc. Rental Software Antitrust Litigation, with more than 30 complaints consolidated in the Middle District of Tennessee. In this cutting-edge case involving the law of conspiracy and pricing algorithms, plaintiff renters have sued RealPage Inc., a real-estate software and data analytics company, and major residential property managers for allegedly conspiring to inflate rents for multi-family residential housing leases nationwide; another complaint alleges a market for student housing. Plaintiffs accuse the management companies of illegally fixing rents through algorithmic pricing software rather than competing to attract renters.
- Novartis. Ian is counsel to Novartis Pharma AG, Novartis Technology LLC, and Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, in Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. v. Novartis Pharma AG, et al., 1:21-cv-01066-DNH-CFH (N.D.N.Y), a Walker Process monopolization action relating to a patent covering a method for treatment of ophthalmic conditions. In 2022, Ian secured the dismissal of the complaint and the matter is now on appeal. Regeneron Pharms., Inc. v. Novartis Pharma AG, 582 F. Supp. 3d 26 (N.D.N.Y. 2022).
- Google. Ian defended Google in four antitrust cases pitting the company against a game developer, putative classes of consumers and app developers, and 36 state attorneys general. Plaintiffs accuse Google of engaging in unlawful monopolization by restricting the distribution of third-party app stores, deterring Android users from "side-loading" apps downloaded from the Internet, and "tying" app distribution to developers' use of Google Pay Billing. The complaints claim that Google makes it difficult to buy apps outside the Google Play Store, and blocks competing app stores from its marketplace while preventing them from advertising on Google properties. In re: Google Play Store Antitrust Litigation, No. 3:21-md-02981-JD (N.D. Cal.); Epic Games, Inc. v. Google LLC, No. 3:20-cv-05671-JD (N.D. Cal.); In re Google Play Consumer Antitrust Litigation, No. 3:20-cv-05761-JD (N.D. Cal.); In re Google Play Developer Antitrust Litigation, No. 3:20-cv-05792-JD (N.D. Cal.); State of Utah et. al. v. Google LLC et. al., No. 3:21-cv-05227-JD (N.D. Cal.).

In 2022, the dismissal was affirmed by the Ninth Circuit In re Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) Indirect Purchaser Antitrust Litigation, 28 F.4th 42 (9th Cir. 2022). Ian argued on behalf of Samsung, Micron and SK Hynix, Inc.
- Bitcoin.com. Ian was counsel to Bitcoin.com in United American Corp. v. Bitmain, Inc. et al. (S.D. Fla. 2018), the first antitrust case involving crypto currency. In January 2020, the Complaint was dismissed without prejudice; a renewed motion to dismiss was filed and the court granted it with prejudice, dismissing the case. United Am. Corp. v. Bitmain, Inc., 530 F. Supp. 3d 1241, 1249 (S.D. Fla. 2021).
- American Airlines. US Airways Inc v. Sabre (S.D.N.Y.

- Samsung Electronics. In re Optical Disk Drive Antitrust Litig., 303 F.R.D. 311 (N.D. Cal. 2014). Ian argued on behalf of all defendants in opposition to class certification by the direct purchasers; the motion for class certification was denied, only the second time that has happened in a civil case where a guilty plea was entered. The indirect purchaser motion for class certification also was denied. In December 2017, the Northern District of California granted O'Melveny's motions for summary judgment, capping off over eight years of work in this matter, including a Department of Justice investigation that ended without any charges against Samsung or any of its former employees. The plaintiffs were seeking $3 billion in trebled damages.
- Samsung Bioepis. Ian was counsel to Samsung Bioepis in the first "pay for delay" case involving biosimilars, In re Humira Antitrust Litigation.

- American Airlines/US Airways. Ian represented US Airways in US Airways v. SABRE Inc. (S.D.N.Y.), a cutting edge case involving two-sided markets and challenging SABRE's MFN provisions.
- Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. Gun Owners of America, Inc. v. Garland, 19 F. 4th 890 (6th Cir. 2021). (An equally divided en banc count affirmed the upholding of ATF’s ban on bump stocks).
- Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. Guedes v. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, 920 F. 3d 1 (D.C. Cir. 2019) (upholding ATF's ban on bump stocks).
- Federal Trade Commission v. Qualcomm, Inc. In the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, Ian represented 40 of the nation's top antitrust scholars in support of the Federal Trade Commission and affirmance in this landmark monopolization case involving the antitrust analysis of standard essential patents. Federal Trade Commission v. Qualcomm, Inc., 969 F. 3d 974 (9th Cir. 2020).
- Asiana Airlines. In what it called "a matter of first impression," the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in April 2011 held that the Airline Deregulation Act preempts state antitrust claims against foreign air passenger carriers. See In re Korean Airlines, Co. Ltd. Antitrust Litigation, 642 F.3d 685 (9th Cir. 2011). This appeal, argued by Ian, affirmed the district court. 567 F. Supp. 2d 1213 (C.D. Cal. 2008). In October 2012, the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued an opinion reaching the same conclusion in connection with foreign air cargo carriers; Ian argued the appeal on behalf of 30 airlines. See In re Air Cargo Shipping Services Antitrust Litigation, 697 F.3d 154 (2d Cir. 2012).
- Marriott International. Ian represented Marriott International in a series of putative class actions alleging resale price maintenance.

- In re Rubber Chemicals Antitrust Litigation, 504 F. Supp. 2d 777 (N.D. Cal. 2007). The District Court for the Northern District of California dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction foreign claims that did not satisfy the FTAIA's "domestic injury" exception.
- In re NBR Antitrust Litigation, 2006 WL 3147328 (3d Cir. 2006). Ian secured a reversal in the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit in an antitrust/arbitration case.

After the jury deadlocked, in a landmark ruling, the district court granted NPI's motion for judgment of acquittal.
