Top 10 of 431 law firms for Merger Challenges, Mergers and Acquisitions Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This work area covers challenges to proposed or completed mergers under UK competition law, focusing on whether a merger would lessen competition in the market. A solicitor helps clients assess whether a transaction requires merger control clearance, and, if needed, challenges CMA decisions or undertakings or pursues remedies through the Competition Appeal Tribunal. In practice, this includes preparing filings, drafting and negotiating remedies, coordinating with the CMA or other regulators, and representing clients in any legal challenge to CMA findings or conditions.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Mergers may trigger complex economic and legal scrutiny under the Enterprise Act 2002 and the Competition Act 1998. A solicitor handles the process from identifying competition concerns, through engagement with the CMA, to drafting objections or remedies, and, if necessary, appealing to the Competition Appeal Tribunal. They work with economist reports, evidence on market structure, and potential behavioural or structural remedies to address competition risks, while navigating deadlines and procedural steps that can be decisive if missed.

Richard Clapham

Tagged solicitor Richard Clapham

I selected Downs Law to manage the sale of my company. It was clear from the initial consultation that Downs law has a very competent team of experts. Richard and his colleagues were excellent every step of the way - providing clear advice, being readily available when questions arose, and being extremely diligent in their duties. Couldn't ask for more.
