Geißler Legal - Specialized Lawyer for Compliance & International Commercial Law
Lawyer for antitrust and competition law at the competitive location Cologne
Compliance optimized Legal Advisory for entrepreneur business activities - out of the box, cross-border, cost-efficient..
Price and territorial agreements, bonuses and discounts, advertising and (cold) acquisition – what do you need to know as an entrepreneur in antitrust and competition law?
Structurally, not so much at first. However, you should systematically ensure from the beginning of your projects that you and your employees play within the rules of the game, both in B2C business and in B2B contracts:
-
The rules of B2C law, the so-called fair trade law, are regulated in Germany in Sections 1 ff. of the UWG.
-
The rules of the game in B2B law, the so-called antitrust law, are regulated in Germany in Sections 1 ff. GWB and Art. 101 ff. TFEU.
These rules, with many other implications under European law, are the absolute basis for acting compliantly in competition. Save yourself warnings, denunciations of competitors to the supervisory authorities, cease-and-desist declarations that are punishable by law, and many other measures by competitors and whistleblowers that are always likely to cause reputational damage.
In the fast-moving and dynamic world of commercial law, it is therefore crucial to understand and comply with the legal framework in its international interrelationships. Companies face complex challenges, particularly in competition law and compliance assurance. From drafting and reviewing contracts to monitoring anti-competitive practices and ensuring compatibility with the German Act Against Unfair Competition - I offer you comprehensive support to minimize legal risks and ensure fair competitive conditions. Find out how I can help you to draft your contracts in accordance with the law and put your business practices to the test. Together we will ensure that your company is not only legally protected, but also remains competitive.
Contract Drafting and Review in Competition Law
In today's business world, it is important to draft contracts in a legally secure manner. I offer comprehensive services in drafting and reviewing contracts, including general terms and conditions clauses. I ensure that your contracts comply with current legal provisions such as the German Civil Code, the German Act Against Unfair Competition, the German Act Against Competition (GWB), the German Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) and other relevant laws. Whether B2C or B2B contracts - I guarantee that your agreements are both legally effective and harmless under competition law.
Compliance and Anti-Competitive Behavior
Forward-looking and seismographic compliance management is crucial to avoid anti-competitive behavior. I analyze and evaluate your business environment with regard to antitrust issues. I pay particular attention to aspects such as the exploitation of a dominant market position, contract terms, bonuses and discounts to ensure that your business practices comply with legal requirements. I also check your sales and marketing strategies for their UWG compatibility in order to identify and avoid possible competition violations at an early stage.
Why competition law and compliance are important for your company
Competition law protects against unfair business practices and is intended to ensure fair competitive conditions. Adhering to compliance requirements protects your company from legal risks and high penalties. By thoroughly reviewing your contracts and business processes, I can ensure that your company remains legally secure and competitive.
