Bredin Prat stands out for its impressively deep bench and broad expertise, which allows the firm to cover the full range of EU, competition and distribution matters and consistently take on the most complex and strategic cases in the French market. The team remains the first port of call for leading French and international clients, drawing on a wealth of experience in high-profile merger control cases before the FCA and EC; cartel, vertical restraints and abuse of dominance investigations by the national and European authorities; follow-on damages actions; and state aid. A group of well-regarded partners – Olivier Billard, Igor Simic, Marie-Cécile Rameau, Yelena Trifounovitch, Pierre Honoré and Arthur Helfer – leads the practice, with caseloads that run the gamut of competition law. Yohann Chevalier and Sophie Troussard-Fauré provide capable support.
