Roxane Polidora, who was named by the Daily Journal as a Top Antitrust Lawyer for 2020, is the leader of the firm’s Antitrust and Competition practice. She is also the managing partner of the firm’s San Francisco office, having spent her entire career with Pillsbury.
Polidora represents client KEMET Corporation, a Florida-based electronic component manufacturing company that is a defendant in a major antitrust class action over price-fixing allegations.
“We aggressively litigated the case, including massive discovery,” Polidora said. “There were extensive motions and mock trial workups.”
Then in November 2019, another company moved to acquire KEMET. “Through a mediation and one-on-one negotiations with plaintiffs’ counsel we were able to successfully settle the case,” she added.
Polidora represents the same clients in similar cases over the electronic components known as resistors and inductors. “We got Kemet out of the resistors cases very quickly,” she said. “Don’t underestimate the importance of good relationships with plaintiffs’ counsel.”
