Competition Law
The consequences of breaching competition law are severe.
Our practical training ensures that you and your workforce understand how competition law applies to day to day business and minimises infringements. Most importantly this training can reduce the risk of:
- incurring penalties of up to 10% of your turnover
- your agreements being rendered void and unenforceable
- being the subject of claims for damages
- suffering adverse publicity; and
- criminal prosecution!
Training is offered in a flexible format of either half-day or full day courses or a series of breakfast or evening seminars. These can be held in our Glasgow or Edinburgh offices or at your own premises.
