De Pardieu Brocas Maffei has particularly well-established expertise in antitrust investigations and litigation, with extensive experience of representing clients in proceedings before the French and European competition authorities and the courts (including in complex cases involving both competition and criminal law), as well as in high-profile private antitrust enforcement cases. The team also has excellent credentials in merger control, where the firm is active in cases at the French and European level, foreign subsidies regulation, state aid and distribution law. Philippe Guibert, a highly regarded adviser to a host of major French-based multinationals, leads the practice. Laëtitia Gavoty Tolot and Alexandre Eberhardt are also standout practitioners, particularly for high-profile cartel and abuse of dominance investigations. Sofia El Hariri provides strong support.
