competition

Business and consumers should be able to obtain good quality products and services at a fair price. Competition law aims to ensure this happens.

Organisations that restrict or distort competition or abuse their dominance in a market are liable to fines of up to 10% of worldwide turnover. Culpable individuals in such organisations also face criminal penalties. If your organisation is causing or suffering from a restriction or distortion of competition please get in touch with an expert in this area immediately.

The Competition Commission and Office of Fair Trading investigate potential breaches or mergers that may affect competition in a particular market. Failure to respond promptly and accurately to such investigations exposes organisations and individuals to hefty fines and possible prison time. emw law has expertise in maximising the benefit or minimising the impact of competition law breaches.
