Baker McKenzie has strengthened its EU and competition law practice significantly at senior level with the hire of François Gordon from Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP in December 2022 and the promotion to counsel of Olivia Chriqui-Guiot in July 2023. The firm is active across the full range of merger control, antitrust investigations and litigation, compliance issues and follow-on damages claims, but particularly stands out for its experience in large-scale cartel investigations by the FCA and in multi-jurisdictional merger control filings and complex phase II investigations. At the head of the practice, Léna Sersiron counts a host of blue-chip French and international companies among her clients.
