Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton‘s Paris team is capable of handling the full scope of complex competition matters at both French and European levels, frequently working in conjunction with the firm’s Brussels office. The team’s recent caseload includes several high-profile merger control matters before the FCA and EC, as well as sensitive cartel and abuse of dominance investigations and litigation. The firm has a strong presence in the technology sector, but its broad client base includes prominent domestic and international companies in the aviation, retail and media spheres, among others. Practice heads Séverine Schrameck and Frédéric de Bure have excellent records in both merger control and antitrust investigations and litigation. Stéphanie Patureau is another name to note. François-Charles Laprévote, Anita Magraner and Antoine Winckler are the key contacts in Brussels.
