Unfair trade and price-fixing practices among companies in Maryland and throughout the United States is not uncommon. As consumers we understand that companies are always trying to be competitive with their pricing, but we also know that they are generally trying to charge as much as they can for their products. Generally, this competition among these companies is open and transparent, which is designed to benefit the consumer with competitively lower prices. However, sometimes some companies conspire to falsely set prices or mislead consumers about supply of the competitively-priced product. That's where state and Federal antitrust laws come into play to make sure pricing is fair for consumers.
Maryland state-enforced antitrust laws , as well as Federal laws, are intended to discourage both collusion between companies and certain certain mergers and acquisitions that could give one or more companies an unfair advantage in the consumer market. Maryland's antitrust laws allow its residents to bring private lawsuits against companies, enforced by the Attornet General. In many case, plaintiffs can even recover their attorneys' fees, costs, and damages when the claims are successful
