‘Allowing for the swift and accurate adoption of mitigation measures and action plans’, FerradaNehme’s ‘antitrust team is exceptional’. The sizeable, 20-member competition and regulation department has longstanding experience in high-stakes contentious and non-contentious competition law proceedings, in relation to transactions (including mergers), investigations, litigation, preventive matters, and compliance programmes; its sector expertise ranges from retail, telecoms, mining and banking, to energy, fishing, ports, railways, electricity, pensions, insurance and oil and gas (among others). Nicole Nehme is a widely-respected competition and regulatory law specialist, whose ’technical legal skills are superlative’. Nehme, who has an enviable track record in Antitrust Court (TDLC) cases, is flanked by: Diego Hernández, whose experience encompasses antitrust compliance programmes, TDLC proceedings, and matters before Chile’s National Competition Authority (FNE), particularly in relation to investigations into mergers, cartels and abuses of dominant positions; Mabel Ahumada, an adviser on mergers, FNE investigations and compliance; and Benjamín Mordoj, who focuses on industries where economic regulation interacts with antitrust law. In the firm’s senior director ranks, Beatriz Hidalgo assists with competition law litigation, merger control analyses and compliance programmes; while Catalina Íñiguez has extensive experience in TDLC litigation. Other directors to note are Josefina Campos, Raffaela Corte and María de los Ángeles Mufdi.
