About
Provided by Gide Loyrette Nouel
We have had an office in Brussels, the centre of European law, since 1967. Comprising 6 partners, more than 30 lawyers and legal practitioners and other experts, all former senior European civil servants, we share our uniquely comprehensive expertise with our French, European and international clients whose strategic decisions are significantly influenced by Brussels. We support our clients in three key areas:
Regulatory affairs
We appear before European institutions, national authorities and the competent courts. Listed on the Transparency Register of the European Commission and the European Parliament, we are able to implement advocacy strategies.
Competition law and anti-trust
We act in major cartel and abuse of dominant position cases before European, national and international administrative and judicial authorities. We have extensive expertise in State aid and competition matters linked to the development of new European regulations (FSR, DMA/DSA, AI, etc.).
International trade and regulation
In addition to traditional customs matters, our office is a pioneer in the innovative application of regulations on dumping practices and foreign subsidies, as well as new “level playing field” rules (IPI, FSR…). We are often asked to advise on matters regarding the application of new European regulations with an external dimension (local content, reciprocity in public procurement directives, etc.).
