COMPETITION AND TRADE PRACTICES LAW
With strengths in: conducting
trade practices litigation and advising on trade
practices and competition law issues.
Trade practices law is relevant to every transaction
between business and consumers, and among businesses
in Australia. A number of government agencies, including

and trade practices lawyers to assist them with legal
matters in these areas.
Our services include:

including the Australian Competition Tribunal in
trade practices matters

- management of major competition law litigation
- advice in relation to business and consumer
activities, and on the application of trade practices
legislation

compliance plans.
