OUR APPROACH

How We Advise on Cartels and Anticompetitive Agreements

  1. Arrangements We Advise On and Defend

    We advise on horizontal and vertical arrangements that may restrict competition, including price coordination, market and customer allocation, bid-rigging, output restrictions, resale price maintenance and exclusive or selective distribution, and we defend clients in cartel investigations and enforcement proceedings.

  2. Assessing Exemption and Restructuring Options

    Our work includes assessing whether an arrangement is capable of exemption, restructuring it where necessary.

  3. Leniency and Immunity Applications

    We advise on leniency and immunity applications where a client is considering disclosure to the relevant competition authority.

  4. Responding to Information Requests and Inspections

    We handle responses to information requests and inspections as a case develops.

  5. Managing Parallel Proceedings From a Single Set of Facts

    We manage the parallel administrative, civil and — in some jurisdictions — criminal proceedings that a single set of facts can trigger.
