Competition Litigation

Our first class litigation and dispute resolution skills, coupled with our leading-edge competition law expertise, enable us to handle complex competition litigation matters. Our Competition Litigation group of cross-disciplinary specialists comprises lawyers from our Competition and Dispute Resolution practices. It is made up of eight partners and an adviser on regulated industries, Christopher Wright.

Together, we have extensive experience in appeals against decisions of competition and regulatory authorities. We act in competition litigation before English and other national courts, the General Court and the Court of Justice.

We are at the cutting edge of the current increase in private actions, acting in ground-breaking competition litigation before the English and European Courts. We also coordinate cross-border antitrust litigation strategies with the practices of our "Best Friends" in other major jurisdictions.

Working with lawyers from our Intellectual Property group, we have recently also played an innovative role in developing competition law defences to patent infringement actions in the UK Courts.
