Quinz advises clients on all aspects of EU competition law related to anti-competitive agreements and abuse of dominance.
Holding a significant market position often leads to increased regulatory scrutiny, as competition authorities closely monitor the conduct of dominant undertakings. We assist clients in managing the risks associated with such dominance, including issues related to exclusivity obligations, bundling and tying practices, refusal to supply, pricing strategies and rebates. We also represent clients harmed by abusive conduct, safeguarding their commercial interests through strategic legal action when necessary.
Quinz advises national and international clients on the structuring of horizontal and vertical business agreements, including distribution, technology transfer, licensing, R&D, commercialization agreements and joint ventures. Quinz also has extensive experience in advising clients regarding information exchanges between competitors.
