Unfair trading practices

We are at the forefront of advising clients in the field of unfair trading practices, which is a relatively new field of law in many countries.

Whether evaluating contracts and commercial practices or dealing with complaints and subsequent court proceedings, our experienced team assists clients in complying with the relevant EU and Austrian regulations.

Also – where necessary – we defend their commercial interests against unjustified demands from strong buyers or suppliers.

For example, CMS has advised clients in landmark decisions against wedding bonuses and in some of the first national cases after the implementation of the EU UTP Directive in national laws.
