Competition Law or Disputes

Competition law mandates that UK commercial agreements must comply with EU competition laws, which include corporate/commercial and regulatory laws. It covers the specifics of corporate transactions such as mergers, acquisitions and the like. Competition law entails enforceability of existing contracts, new commercial agreements and joint ventures and especially seeking to prevent anti-competitive practices. If your company is making an acquisition, it is advisable to engage a competition lawyer to check the due diligence process, which will help avoid any problems. This will keep you clear of any competition problems when transacting your business. If a disagreement does arise, however – say when your company was hit by anti competitive activity – you could bring a claim for damages or approach the courts to enforce other antitrust litigation. On the other hand, if a claim has been made against your company, you will require the expertise of specialised competition solicitors for resolution of the dispute, and that is where Legal Compare can assist you.
