With offices in Paris and Brussels, Bredin Prat advises French and international clients on all aspects of French and European competition law, including:
- merger control
- cartels and abuse of dominance
- antitrust damages actions
- state aid
The firm also advises on matters involving distribution law and deregulation of sectors such as telecommunications, energy, postal services and transportation.
Members of the team are frequently consulted on proposed legislative and regulatory reforms. In 2008, our lawyers actively participated in creating the Association des Avocats Pratiquant le Droit de la Concurrence (APDC), a competition lawyer association, which has now become the key contact organisation for competition and public authorities on competition law matters.
