Ellex utilises its sizeable team to operate as a one-stop shop for clients looking for assistance with complex competition law issues, such as merger filings, across the Baltics. Mandates also extend to litigation before the EU Commission and the European Court of Justice. Practice head Martin Mäesalu, whose clients include some of Estonia’s largest companies, has a history of representing public sector clients in state aid matters before such courts. Kevin Gerretz can be noted for his involvement in the group’s monopolisation and abuse of dominance cases, while Miikael Tuus also has a strong presence in the firm’s competition law cases, particularly in merger clearance matters. Raino Paron is another key name to note.
