Competition Investigation & Dawn Raids

Whether you’ve received a gentle call from a regulator or need to navigate a dawn raid, our competition investigation lawyers are here to minimise costly disruption to your business. 

Overview

Competition litigation cases range dramatically in how disruptive and severe they can be for your organisation. To handle this process with nuance and mitigate escalation, you need a team of competition investigation lawyers with experience on their side.

Our competition experts have a deep knowledge of the regulators you’ll need to know. This includes the UK Competition & Markets Authority (CMA), UK sectoral regulators, the European Commission, and national authorities throughout EU Member States. 

Whether you need to handle the consequences of a dawn raid or appeal a decision made by a regulator, our competition investigation lawyers use forward-thinking approaches to finding solutions tailored to your business. Where appropriate, we will work with you to identify strategies to persuade an authority to drop or conclude an investigation early, through potential commitments or settlement or even to consider the merits of a leniency application.  

No matter the size or scope of your competition case, we’re here to help. This includes advising on your options when faced with anti-competitive behaviour from a competitor, or navigating international market investigations.
