What the team is known for

DLA Piper offers an in-depth understanding of regulatory and commercial perspectives on competition law issues, based on extensive experience handling high-stakes mandates for both the ACCC and leading corporations. The team is particularly familiar with the regulatory landscapes affecting the automotive, energy, financial services and telecommunications industries, and is regularly instructed on merger clearance, infrastructure access and regulatory compliance issues. The practice is also experienced advising on contentious matters, including not only those involving Australian Competition Tribunal and Federal Court proceedings, but also those considered by regulatory bodies at state level. The firm is highly prized for its integration with the firm's global network, facilitating cross-jurisdictional assistance and swifter familiarisation with worldwide competition law trends.

Band 4

Simon Uthmeyer leads the team from the Melbourne office, covering both the contentious and advisory sides of competition law practice, including infrastructure access, abuse of dominance and cartel matters.

"I really rate Simon very highly. He's highly strategic and puts in a lot of effort with other consultants and with the client. He's a great project manager. If I had a complex competition issue, I would go to him; he's always thinking outside the box and does a lot of work for the ACCC so he brings a lot of healthy perspective to it."
