Antitrust and Competition

The firm has a dedicated team of professionals with more than 20 years' experience in national and EU competition law, through which it provides high-level advice to its Italian and foreign clients on a wide range of antitrust issues, both at domestic and EU level, including merger control, abuses of dominant position, horizontal and vertical agreements and private enforcement actions.

Our expertise includes representing foreign multinationals in complex proceedings before Italian and EU courts, as well as in sanctioning procedures initiated by the competent national and supranational Supervisory Authorities, concerning unfair commercial practices, abuse of dominant position, state aid and mergers.

At LCA, we understand the importance of prevention. As such, our legal experts also advise in the preparation of specific antitrust compliance programs and internal audits of companies, to ensure that the company’s commercial conduct is fully compliant with antitrust law, with particular attention to any conduct that could entail criminal liability.

Lastly, but not least, our professional advisors are also experts in litigation aspects of antitrust law: actions for damages for anticompetitive conduct, both follow-on and stand-alone; actions for injunctions for the same conduct or for unfair commercial practices and class actions.
