One of the first firms to launch a dedicated competition and antitrust practice at the turn of the century, Bomchil has extensive experience across the fields of merger controls, anti-competitive practices and sensitive cartel investigations. The team, which is comprised of a merger control and investigations unit and a general advice and compliance arm, supports companies across a wide range of industries on competition law matters, and works closely with the firm’s administrative law and dispute resolution departments to offer a comprehensive service that includes advice on related regulatory and litigation matters. The practice is led by the exceptional Marcelo den Toom, a vastly experienced and respected competition lawyer. Further partner support comes from TMT expert Francisco Gutiérrez and Fernando Brunelli, a veteran in natural resources and energy law. Godofredo Ortiz has left the firm and taken up a position with Tanoira Cassagne Abogados.
