Alan’s practice focuses on European competition and regulatory law. At the European Commission, he worked on almost 100 EU Merger Regulation cases, including many phase two cases, phase one with remedies and difficult phase one unconditional clearances. He has also successfully defended and brought complaints for abuse of dominance and anti-competitive agreements and secured total release from cartel proceedings for clients.
