Provided by Piibe Lehtsaar
A specialist in EU and Estonian competition law, Piibe is passionate about keeping clients out of harm’s way and stand by the words of Benjamin Franklin: “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail”.
Several companies that were dawn-raided by the European Commission in Estonia have received on-site legal support from her, followed by off-site legal advice in proceedings conducted by the European Commission.
With experience that includes litigation against the Estonian Competition Authority and the Estonian state ‒ both in the Estonian courts as well as in international arbitration ‒ she has advised clients on a wide range of tariff regulation issues.
In addition to filing numerous merger notifications with the Estonian Competition authority, she has ‒ uniquely among Estonian lawyers ‒ also filed a merger notification with the European Commission.

I am really very satisfied with her work. She is good on litigation questions and questions on the interplay between EU and domestic competition law.
She was responsive and flexible, she understood the client and the transaction quickly and with good depth, and we trusted the advice she provided.
She was very pleasant to work with, responsive and clear in her advice.
