Lawyers for competition law (Unfair Competition Act – UWG)

From advertising and marketing campaigns to websites and protection against imitations, our competition lawyers (Unfair Competition Act – UWG) can advise you on all competition law issues and prevent legal problems arising in the first place. 

The objective of CMS’s competition law experts is to work with you to develop legally robust solutions that are effective without restricting your creativity or undermining your business success. Thanks to many years of experience, they have an in-depth understanding of all the legal issues around advertising, marketing and websites.   

The expertise of our competition law (UWG) specialists also extends to litigation, and in particular temporary injunction proceedings and cross-border disputes. On request, they will also review your competitors’ websites and products and assert your rights vis-à-vis imitators.
