Band 2

Marc Kuijper often assists clients with competition law damages actions and appeals against decisions. He also has experience in merger control filings, behavioural investigations and competition law compliance matters.

He is very practical in his approach, always on top of the latest developments and has excellent insights into what's possible and what's not.

I like his pragmatic and clear approach, which is very much to the point and he is able to explain what is going on in normal words, which is very helpful.

He remains very calm which is very appreciated. He has the right contacts.

He knows how to handle difficult cases and knows what can be done on each level.
