Competition
Competition law poses many challenges, which require both an in-depth understanding of the legal framework and sound knowledge of the economic issues surrounding a case. The team of ZEILER regularly advises on matters of competition law, including in litigious cases. We assist clients in transactional matters, such as drafting distributorship agreements, as well as assessing cases in the pre-dispute phase.
In particular, we handle disputes involving competition law before both arbitral tribunals and domestic courts, including the Austrian Kartellgericht (Cartel Court). Our team has successfully represented clients in high-stakes disputes regarding damages cases for violation of national or EU competition law, including in the energy sector (such as gas storage, gas transit, and gas supply agreements) or the healthcare sector.
