Brent has served as lead and co-lead counsel in cases that have compensated class members hundreds of millions of dollars for claims under Sherman Act Sections 1 and 2 and state antitrust laws. He also has initiated and developed cases that have helped break new ground in antitrust law, including those on behalf of workers challenging restraints in labor markets.

Brent leads the Co-Lead Counsel teams in the following notable antitrust class actions:

  • Jien v. Perdue Farms, Inc. (D. Md.): Brent leads the Co-Lead Counsel team for Cohen Milstein, representing a proposed class of poultry plant workers, in a suit alleging that the nation’s largest chicken and turkey producers conspired to suppress their compensation. On June 5, 2025, the Court granted final approval to settlements totaling more than $398 million. The Court also found that counsel have “consistently demonstrated strong and vigorous advocacy throughout the litigation, from a thorough pre-suit investigation to extensive discovery to effective settlement negotiations.” On October 14, 2025, the Court preliminarily approved a settlement with the final defendant, Agri Stats, a data vendor for the poultry industry, for injunctive relief that reforms their provision of labor data.
  • Brown v. JBS USA Food Company (D. Co.): Brent leads the Co-Lead Counsel team for Cohen Milstein, representing a proposed class of beef and pork plant workers, in a suit alleging that the nation’s largest beef and pork producers conspired to suppress their compensation. Plaintiffs so far have reached settlements totaling more than $200 million. The case is in discovery with the remaining defendants.
  • In re Broiler Chicken Antitrust Litigation (N.D. Ill.): Brent leads the Co-Lead Counsel team for Cohen Milstein, representing a class of end-user consumers of broiler chicken in a litigation alleging that the defendants, who include Perdue Farms and Tyson Foods, agreed to restrict the supply of broilers, among other things, thereby raising their price to consumers. As of July 25, 2023, settlements against defendants total $183.9 million. In its December 20, 2021 order granting final approval of settlements with six defendants for a total of $181 million, the Court described co-lead counsel’s work as “exemplary.”
  • Scharpf v. General Dyamics Corp. (E.D. Va.): Brent leads the Co-Lead Counsel team for Cohen Milstein, representing a proposed class of naval architects and marine engineers, in a suit alleging that the nation’s largest private contractors and consulting firms who design and build ships for the Navy and Coast Guard conspired to not actively recruit class members and thereby suppress their compensation.
  • Dorrell v. Constellation Energy Corp. (D. Md.): Brent leads the Co-Lead Counsel team for Cohen Milstein, representing a proposed class of nuclear engineers and others employed in nuclear power generation, in a suit alleging that the nation’s largest nuclear power companies conspired to exchange compensation data and conduct in-person meetings to align and suppress compensation.
