关于 Angela Landry (nee Diveley)
Angela is counsel in our antitrust, competition and trade group and is based in Silicon Valley and Washington, DC, where she advises clients on a range of antitrust law issues, including merger control, corporate compliance programs, and agency advocacy.
She is known for providing pragmatic advice relating to the antitrust aspects of multi-million and multi-billion dollar mergers & acquisitions, including antitrust risk assessment, transaction negotiations, multi-jurisdictional merger control, and advocacy before the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and US Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division (DOJ). She has extensive expertise guiding clients through in-depth agency investigations, as well as significant experience advising clients on corporate compliance programs. She has experience in a wide range of commercial sectors, including financial services, technology, healthcare, retail, and manufacturing.
Prior to joining Freshfields, Angela served as an Attorney Advisor to an FTC Commissioner, providing counsel on antitrust investigations, enforcement actions, and policy initiatives, which provided her with valuable insight into the agency’s deliberative process and the impacts of US antitrust policy on real-world business practices.
Angela is currently serving as a co-editor of Competition Policy International’s North America column on evolving antitrust issues. She also actively works to foster interest in antitrust law and grow the antitrust bar, serving as a mentor, speaking on career panels at her alma mater, and participating as a judge in the annual Global Antitrust Institute Invitational, which is the only moot court competition dedicated exclusively to antitrust law.
