Unfair competition

Potential civil law claims related to misconduct of competitors involve not only competition-related private enforcement resulting from anticompetitive agreements or abuse of dominance. We also help clients bring and defend claims related to all acts of unfair competition, including the following:

• Disclosure of business secrets
• Misleading marketing of goods and services
• Product imitation
• Disparagement
• Forbidden advertising

Wherever necessary, we closely cooperate with our dispute resolution team to provide comprehensive expertise and add their broad experience in litigation matters to our expert knowledge in this field. 

We also provide day-to-day advice on commercial agreements, sales and marketing strategies, as well as product compliance, to help clients protect their commercial interests, while keeping good relationships with their business partners and avoiding the risk of any future claims from third parties or the regulatory authorities.
