Pepeliaev Group’s experts represented a Russian airline when it challenged the results of a tender and an agreement the vendor was forced to enter into with the airline. Despite there being no existing case law in this area, Pepeliaev Group’s lawyers managed to have the claim denied by the court of first instance and court of appeal, thus creating a legal precedent.
The Practice’s lawyers represented a large transport operator who, together with ten other companies, was accused of having entered into a cartel agreement and an anticompetitive agreement with a state authority.
Our Antitrust Practice's lawyers provided integrated legal support to an international manufacturer of sports clothes and equipment in its day-to-day business operations. Pepeliaev Group’s lawyers reviewed agreements from the standpoint of competition legislation. We also analysed the client’s business model including its online sales model, and provided advice on Russian advertising legislation.
The firm’s Antitrust Practice provided legal support to a major Russian mobile operator when it developed and implemented a compliance system. The project handled by Pepeliaev Group’s lawyers for MTS was among the first of its kind in Russia. It is now a positive illustrative case promoting the institution of antitrust compliance on the Russian market.
Our lawyers and IT specialists have developed the optimal way to obtain a licence for the technical protection of confidential information with minimal cost outlay on the equipment and technical means needed for this. In the opinion of the Russian Federal Service for Technical and Export Control (FSTEC), every company which uses technical means to process confidential information needs such a licence. Administrative liability as well as criminal liability are stipulated for conducting licensed types of activity without licence.
