Episode 18 of The Slarskey Brief is LIVE – The Crossover Advantage: Building a Practice Across IP, Antitrust, & Government Service

November 5, 2026

Episode 18 of our podcast, The Slarskey Brief, is now live on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify.

In this episode, “The Crossover Advantage: Building a Practice Across IP, Antitrust, & Government Service” Partner Evan Fried is joined by Brian Pandya, Partner at Duane Morris, for a conversation that explores how experience across patent litigation, antitrust, government service, healthcare, and complex commercial disputes can shape a broader legal practice.

Highlights from the discussion include:

  • Tips for building a practice through either a broad set of skills or a highly specialized niche, and why clients increasingly value lawyers who can provide solutions across multiple areas of law
  • The growing intersection of intellectual property, antitrust, privacy, data collection, and algorithmic pricing, particularly when traditional legal theories are applied to new and technically complex technologies
  • The different ways DOJ matters originate, including investigations that develop from the ground up and initiatives driven by leadership priorities, and how that distinction can shape advocacy and resolution strategies
  • The rise of cross-border and interdisciplinary disputes, and why litigators should be prepared for cases that don’t fit neatly into a single category
  • Practical guidance on business development at different career stages, from writing and speaking to client development and maintaining meaningful professional relationships
