Antitrust Law
In the Antitrust Law Practice Group, we provide comprehensive advice in German and European antitrust law to companies, associations and public authorities. We lead and coordinate the necessary merger control procedures on German, European and multinational levels and support our clients in avoiding antitrust law violations, in particular by means of our compliance counseling. Our range of services includes advising the European Commission and national antitrust authorities on legislative projects and in connection with implementing and interpreting of laws.
We represent our clients before the German Federal Cartel Office, the European Commission and before German and European courts. Our international focus and our well-established contacts to leading law firms in all of the major jurisdictions allows us to account for the increasing internationalizarion of anti-trust law and the worldwide networking of antitrust authorities.
