[email protected] Introduction Gorrissen Federspiel has the leading Danish competition law practice with comprehensive experience in advising and representing clients during merger clearance processes. Our merger clearance team includes both legal and economic experts who have extensive experience from both national and international cases and with immeasurable experi- ence from working at competition authorities. We take great pride in representing our clients and ensuring that their process with relevant competition authorities, including the European Commission, is carried out as smoothly as possible. If the transaction is subject to approval by one or more competition authorities – which is the case if it constitutes a “merger” and certain thresholds are met – efficient teamwork and communication between the merging parties and the competition law specialists are key to the merger clearance process.
