Bán, S. Szabó, Rausch & Partners’ competition law team advises its clients for many years in connection with the competition laws of the European Union and Hungary. Our advice encompasses all fields of competition law, including the prior assessment and, if necessary, the notification of concentrations (mergers, acquisitions, and asset transfer deals); guidance on market practices potentially restricting economic competition both in vertical and vertical relationships (among other things, pricing and exclusivity practices in distribution arrangements, cooperation and information exchange among competitors); identifying and applying additional legal requirements applicable to undertakings with dominant market position; and enforcement of private claims triggered by infringements of the prohibition of unfair market practices. Our office is often listed in Global Competition Review 100” as an expert on competition law. 

Our practice in competition law covers all areas in this field, such as 

  • advice for our clients, and their representation before the competent authorities and courts, in connection with mergers, cartels, and abuse of dominant position issues, 
  • litigation in connection with the enforcement of damages suffered as a result of competition law infringements,
  • competition law-related support in the structuring of mergers and acquisitions,
  • implementing compliance programs.
