Competition
The competition rules regulate how your business deals with competitors, customers and suppliers. They ban anti-competitive agreements and prohibit companies with market power from misusing it. The UK has one of the toughest competition law regimes in the world – with large fines and possible criminal sanctions for breaches - and so all companies need to make sure that they comply.
Our team consists of full-time specialist competition lawyers, trained in the City and Brussels. We can offer practical, commercial advice on how the competition rules apply to your business agreements and are experienced in dealing with both the UK and European regulators. We regularly provide bespoke competition law training sessions and advice on how to manage an investigation by the competition authorities. Clients praise us for our “clear and practical advice.”
