Legal defence in antitrust litigation is becoming increasingly important for companies, not only as defendants but also when they wish to use claims for damages suffered as a result of anti-competitive conduct, such as in cartel cases where damages for breaches of competition law represent an excellent opportunity for those affected seeking compensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At LITIGO PARTNERS, we intervene in these proceedings by filing claims for damages arising from competition infringements to defend companies affected by such anti-competitive practices. These actions are generally claims based on a final administrative or judicial decision declaring the existence of anti-competitive conduct before the commencement of civil compensation actions for damages suffered (“follow-on actions”), as they are much safer than actions without such a prior declaration (“stand-alone actions”), where the existence of such collusive behaviour must be proven. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Our antitrust damages team defends companies, individuals and associations in cases involving claims against companies for price fixing, abuse of dominance, information exchanges, and other antitrust infringements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
