Competition

At Erkan, we have one of the strongest Competition Law practice groups with lawyers of national and international experience. We particularly focus on merger control filings and anti-trust investigations.

Merger Control Filing: When it comes to mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures, navigating the complex landscape of competition regulations is essential. Our team assists clients in obtaining the necessary approvals and clearances from the Turkish Competition Authority (TCA). We conduct detailed analyses to assess the competitive effects of proposed transactions and guide clients through the intricate filing process.

In merger control filings, we work closely with clients to gather all the required information and documents, ensuring compliance with the TCA's strict requirements. We prepare robust submissions that address potential competition concerns and present compelling arguments to secure clearance for the transaction. Our goal is to help clients achieve their business objectives while maintaining compliance with merger control regulations.

Investigations and Enforcement Proceedings: In cases where the TCA initiates investigations into potential anticompetitive behavior, our experienced attorneys provide strategic guidance and effective representation. We assist clients in responding to information requests, preparing defense strategies, and negotiating settlements, when appropriate.

Our team has a deep understanding of the TCA's investigative procedures and a proven track record in handling complex competition cases. We diligently analyze the facts, assess potential risks, and develop strong arguments to protect our clients' interests during the enforcement proceedings. We strive to achieve the best possible outcome, whether it involves negotiating favorable resolutions or representing clients in litigation before competition authorities or courts.

Our attorneys stay up-to-date with the latest developments in competition law and have a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory landscape in Turkey. We leverage our industry insights and experience to anticipate potential issues, devise effective compliance strategies, and guide clients through the complexities of competition law.

We are committed to building strong, long-term relationships with our clients based on trust, integrity, and effective communication. We prioritize understanding our clients' specific needs and objectives, allowing us to provide personalized advice and tailor our strategies to meet their goals.
