Competition law

Laurius advises national and international clients on all aspects of competition law, with particular expertise in cartel investigations, restrictive agreements, abuse of dominance and economic dependence.

We help companies navigate the complexities of competition regulation, offering clear and pragmatic advice on the structuring of horizontal and vertical agreements – including distribution, licensing, technology transfer, R&D collaborations, commercialization arrangements and joint ventures. Our team also advises on exclusivity obligations, refusal to supply, pricing strategies, rebate schemes and the exchange of information between competitors.

Where commercial interests are harmed by abusive conduct, we act decisively to safeguard our clients’ position through targeted legal action.
