Competition, trade and regulatory legislation often affect business transactions and commercial arrangements, without the affected organisation even recognising the issue. This can have a huge impact on business operations and commercial agreements. These issues are becoming increasingly more complex and critical to the success of any business.
Muckle LLP recognises and understands the EU and UK competition and regulatory constraints, under which businesses are required to operate, and has the expertise and experience needed to tackle such issues. We offer a one-stop shop for clear, proactive, strategic and commercial advice on a broad-range of local and multi-jurisdictional competition, trade and regulatory matters.
Here’s how we can help
Our experienced and talented team can advise on competition, trade and regulatory issues including:
- restrictive covenants and restraints of trade;
- anti-competitive agreements and practices;
- the importance of adherence to block exemptions in commercial agreements;
- state aid both on behalf of public sector clients and on behalf of private sector clients; and
- market abuse.
In addition to having specialists within the firm, we have developed close links with a leading barrister's chambers specialising in state aid and competition law issues. This helps us to ensure that we can respond quickly to any EU or competition law issues which may arise.
