Antitrust and unfair competition

We provide comprehensive legal- and business-oriented strategies and advice for dealing with issues where there is an overlap between intellectual property law and the legal regulations of anti-trust, unfair competition and similar challenges. These issues range from the very common

advice on potential legal risks of license agreements from an antitrust standpoint to dealing with possible government violations when enforcing IP rights including trademarks, patents, industrial designs, among others, which are still rarely seen but growing in this region. It is worth considering

that while most Latin American countries have implemented regulations against unfair competition, there are still many governments, which do not have anti-trust legislation. Therefore, the level and importance of the interplay mentioned above varies greatly in this region.
