We have the knowledge, experience and day-to-day understanding of our clients’ business practices that are necessary to provide them with excellent legal support in the various areas of antitrust law.

Among our services, we offer consulting services in:

Investigations by the National Economic Prosecutor’s Office: We are dedicated to providing legal advice and assisting our clients in all types of investigations carried out by the National Economic Prosecutor’s Office, whether in matters of cartels, antitrust, compliance, mergers or market studies, providing the necessary support and designing the legal strategy that is most appropriate for the specific case under investigation.

Leniency programs: In cartel cases, we advise both legal and natural persons in the filing of applications for leniency before the National Economic Prosecutor’s Office, in order to seek an exemption or reduction of the fine, as the case may be, as well as exemption from criminal liability or reduction of the penalty if applicable.

Notifications of mergers and participations in competing companies: We have extensive experience in advising our clients in merger notification procedures before the National Economic Prosecutor’s Office, pursuant to Title IV of Decree Law No. 211, as well as in notifications of participations in competing companies, in accordance with the provisions of article 4° bis of the same body of law.

Contentious and non-contentious proceedings before the Tribunal de Defensa de la Libre Competencia and the Supreme Court: Our team prepares the legal strategy and assumes the legal representation before the competent courts in all types of antitrust proceedings, including litigation, consultations, requests for reports and regulatory recommendation files.

Design of antitrust compliance programs: Our team prepares and updates antitrust compliance programs in line with the guidelines published by the National Economic Prosecutor’s Office. We design compliance manuals, train company executives and employees, and conduct the required audits to evaluate the effectiveness and performance of the implemented program.
