Insurance Brokerage Antitrust Litigation
The causation theory is based on the premise that anti-competitive practices such as price-fixing and market allocation among insurers and brokers artificially inflated premiums and restricted competition. This conspiracy suppressed normal price signals, leading to supra-competitive prices and economic harm to plaintiffs. Expert analyses support that these practices were substantial factors in causing damages, violating antitrust laws like the Sherman Act.
