Antitrust & Competition:
Our antitrust team was established in 2007. Lifang is a pioneer of antitrust litigation, having represented in multiple landmark antitrust litigations. For instance, we represented China Netcom (now China Unicom) in the abuse of market dominance lawsuit , which was China’s first antitrust lawsuit following the enactment of the
Anti-monopoly Law of China (“AML”). We represented Qihoo in Qihoo 360 v. Tencent, the first antitrust case heard by the Supreme People’s Court. We are representing Tetra Pak in an abuse of market dominance case, which is the first high-profile follow-on action in China following antitrust authority’s decision.
Moreover, we have acted in multiple antitrust litigations involving standard essential patents for our rich experience in both IP litigation and antitrust litigation, including a series of high-profile litigations between Huawei and Samsung. We participated in almost all the major SEP litigations in China. With our capability to handle both patent and FRAND issues, we can offer our clients optimized litigation strategies to maximize their interest.
