Competition

The Binder Grösswang competition law team is one of the biggest and most experienced in Austria. This facilitates swift handling of complex, large-scale  antitrust and market abuse cases, follow-up damage claims and large-scale merger control proceedings.

In addition to dealing with competition law issues in the narrow context, we specialize in issues relating to EU state aid and general EU law. Depending on the case, our experts cooperate closely, as needed, with other Binder Grösswang teams – for instance, the M&A, corporate, finance or supervisory law teams.

We represent our clients before Austrian and EU authorities. In cross-border cases, we work together with renowned international partner law firms within our international network. Our approach is practical, economical, creative and solution-oriented. Moreover, our clients benefit from our vast experience in the major industrial and commercial sectors.
