Monika Zejden-Erdmann

Monika is a Partner in Eversheds Sutherland's Competition, EU and Trade practice group.

Monika handles a broad range of international trade law matters, including all aspects of export control and sanctions laws, WTO rules, anti-dumping, import tariffs, product classification, rules of origin, contractual issues, and trade-related due diligence in the context of M&A transactions.

A number of the group's clients see Monika as the first port of call, particularly for export control and sanctions advice. She has significant experience on assisting clients with voluntary disclosures in respect of trade control violations, which have resulted in no further action being taken by authorities.

Monika was seconded for 2 years to a global energy business, where she provided day-to-day advice on compliance with trade and financial sanctions.

Monika's practice also encompasses EU and UK regulatory issues, including Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, Critical Raw Materials Act, product regulation and supply chain considerations.
