A leading practice

Driven by innovation

Our Competition Dawn Raid Tool assists you in a crisis situation. MergeAware provides an efficient solution for completing M&A deals by streamlining the merger notification process.

Ahead of the curve

We are at the forefront of developments across sustainability, national security, digital platforms, consumer enforcement and UK/EU trade, where we are named as a “Firm to Watch” by Legal 500.

Our full-service practice enables us to provide our clients with a holistic approach to mitigating competition and consumer law risk, as we observe competition authorities increasingly use their consumer law powers alongside competition enforcement powers as a toolkit approach.

We are strongly focused on the risks and opportunities arising from the UK’s exit from the EU, from the additional complexities for merger control and antitrust investigations, to changes to the UK’s subsidy control regime and development of the UK’s new independent trade policy.
