Competition & EU Law

Our Practice

Brodies has a significant practice covering EU and UK competition and regulatory law on issues such as cartels, restrictive agreements and the abuse of dominant positions, as well as the competition and regulatory aspects of mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures. We also assist businesses with advice on competition issues arising from commercial agreements, including licensing, franchising, supply and distribution arrangements.

We have outstanding experience in advising on regulatory issues, including state aid, public procurement and sectoral regulation. Our clients value the practical approach we are able to bring to advising on EU law and regulations as well as EU and UK competition law.

Our commitment to a broader understanding of and dialogue about EU and competition law is demonstrated by our sponsorship last year of the MacCormick Lecture Series - "Does the European Union have a Constitutional Future?"
