Competition Law

The German Unfair Competition Act (UWG) protects competing companies and the consumer against acts of unfair competition. Misleading advertisement, disparagement of a competitor or offering of pirated goods and services are examples for acts of unfair competition.

We assist our clients in taking legal action against anticompetitive conduct or in defending against unwarranted cease-and-desist letters. It is our pleasure to advise our clients in safeguarding the legality of decisions in areas such as advertising. As in all other fields of practice, we keep our clients’ financial interests at heart when representing them in and out of court in matters of unfair competition.
