What the Team is Known For
Herbert Smith Freehills offers a global, regional and national depth of practice, bolstered by integration of competition expertise across the firm's international network and close collaboration with corporate and dispute resolution colleagues. The team is noted for its vigorous defence of ACCC enforcement proceedings, its frequent representation of leading energy sector players in regulatory investigations and its focus on market behavioural issues in the financial services sphere. Contentious competition law experience embraces both involvement in Full Federal Court and Competition Tribunal proceedings and increasing activity in private actions alleging the contravention of competition law provisions. The practice acts for blue-chip clients across a comprehensive range of industry sectors, including energy, financial services, infrastructure and telecommunications.
