Competition
Previous: We analyze legal and economic ramifications of specific business strategies, business integration processes, commercial strategies, commercial distribution strategies or regulatory projects, from the point of view of antitrust law, to determine their feasibility. We look into antitrust compliance processes in companies, and assist them in developing antitrust policies and manuals, and train high-ranking officials and commercial executives. We provide assistance in ensuring compliance with specific regulations on antitrust matters for regulated sectors. We also provide assistance in ensuring compliance with consumer standards within project terms and conditions, digital platforms, web pages, etc.
Implementation: Integral counsel to address actions derived from infractions to the free competition system and whistleblowing procedures. Assistance in processes for obtaining business merger/amalgamation authorizations before antitrust authorities. Assistance in consumer protection and administrative penalization processes.
