  • 'Our group of companies has been working with Firon’s Antitrust and Competition team for many years. Our experience with them has been excellent in all respects. The team, headed by Eytan Epstein and Mazor Matzkevich, is very knowledgeable in the markets in which we operate and are super professional and practical.'
  • 'We very much appreciate their availability, the fact that we work directly with the partners we know, and their cost-effective approach to billing and work products.'
  • 'Mazor Matzkevich who heads Firon’s competition, antitrust, and regulatory affairs practice, is a pleasure to work with. She is well acquainted with all the ‘inns and outs’ of the antitrust regime and the intricate laws and regulations that apply to the food industry’s markets in which we operate. She is certainly one of the leading lawyers in Israel in competition, yet her approach is always creative and flexible, and her knowledge is always up-to-date. She is successful in promoting our business agendas while ensuring our full compliance with the law.'
  • 'We feel that Mazor Matzkevich’s rich experience and proven record in litigating antitrust law in administrative and criminal proceedings before the Israel Competition Authority is a major advantage.'
