‘The RTPR competition team is definitely a market trailblazer, as they have the skill and expertise to take on mandates on both day-to-day advice as well as investigations from the initial dawn-raid days all the way to a final ruling in court litigation. This gives a client the confidence of working with a team having in-depth command of all the details of a case, as they both understand the business of the client and the stakes of a given decision, being able to then decide the optimal legal approach, being by no means reluctant to creative solutions.’
