Competition / Antitrust

Business life today is characterised by competition. Some of the rules of the game can be found in competition and antitrust law – both areas of law that are characterised by extremely case-specific jurisprudence. Legal practitioners can quickly lose track of the big picture, lending all the more importance to professional and precautionary legal advice.

We advise clients on all aspects of Austrian and European competition law. We assist them with developing, reviewing and adapting business models or marketing measures to ensure that they remain legally compliant without any loss of impact or effectiveness. We also draw up internal compliance policies for clients in order to define risks at an early stage and prevent infringements.

In addition, we assist clients in merger proceedings before national and European competition authorities, represent them in fine proceedings and proceedings for abuse of market power or in asserting or defending against claims under competition and civil law.
