Competition law — Law 104-12
Competition lawyer in Marrakech
Unfair competition, cartels, abuse of dominant position, merger control: the firm advises companies and executives in Marrakech, before the Competition Council and the Commercial Court, to defend or secure their market position.
A demanding framework to preserve market freedom
Law 104-12 on price freedom and competition, and Law 20-13 creating the Competition Council, have tightened control over anticompetitive practices in Morocco. Financial sanctions can be considerable — up to 10% of global revenue — and damage the company's reputation.
On disputes between competitors, unfair competition action and trademark or design counterfeiting remain the most used tools. Response speed — bailiff observation, counterfeiting seizure, summary proceedings — is often decisive.
