Competition law impacts everything from M&A activity to commercial arrangements, state funding and other support. We help businesses to use competition law for their commercial advantage.
We advise on all aspects of competition law, with clients including international household names, FTSE100 listed companies, trade associations and, in the context of state aid work, government departments and public authorities.
We strive to understand your business and the markets in which you operate. This means that our advice is not only technically excellent and commercially astute, but also relevant to your individual situation, strategy and budget. We avoid jargon and focus on delivering solutions that are easily understood. Importantly, we get off the fence. We give a clear and commercial view that clients can rely on.
Our lobbying activities and regular participation at high level UK ministerial and European Commission roundtable meetings means we help shape the competition law agenda for our clients, we don't just interpret the rules.
We provide a range of tools to complement our competition advisory services, including training, compliance audits and sales force surgeries.
