Understanding both the economic and legal sides of competition issues, GSI Meridian’s competition lawyers offer legal consultancy services on competition matters, taking the best economic interests of their clients into consideration.

GSI Meridian not only deals with issues arising around clients’ compliance with the law but also represents clients before the Competition Authority. The GSI Meridian team has a deep understanding of the policy-making process and closely follows all steps taken by the Turkish Competition Authority.

Since the applicable rules and practices of competition law can differ widely between sectors, sector-specific knowledge is not merely an advantage but a core issue in competition law practice. Together with regulatory and procedural knowledge, we assist clients in navigating competition policies in various sectors, especially energy, privatization, media and telecommunications. Our various departments collaborate closely to assist clients in all their concerns involving competition law. Our corporate, energy and litigation teams all contribute, especially in the context of this constant cooperation, regarding competition issues.

We provide guidance on an extensive range of competition issues such as licensing, distribution, intellectual property, regulatory and trade issues and privatization. Also, our mergers and acquisitions practice enables GSI Meridian to provide antitrust and regulatory advice on complex issues raised within the context of mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures and other alliances.
