Competition

Duncan Cotterill advises on all aspects of the Fair Trading and Commerce Acts (New Zealand) and the Fair Trading and Trade Practices Acts (Australia).  We can assist with the following matters:

  • Preparing and implementing compliance programmes
  • Advising your business on appropriate market conduct
  • Responding to requests for information from the competition authority
  • Preparing submissions to the competition authority
  • Taking court action to enforce your business' rights under those statutes;
  • Defending actions brought against your business by the competition authority or by third parties
  • Advising your business on appropriate market conduct
  • Considering whether business acquisitions require notification to the competition authority, and preparing those notifications.

Our competition lawyers have broad-ranging experience including working for the Commerce Commission (the New Zealand competition regulator) and advising businesses on the law as it applies in New Zealand, Australia and in other countries.

The team is drawn both from the firm’s commercial solicitors and from its litigation division to provide the most effective advice and know-how for your business.
