Regulatory Investigations and Litigation

Minter Ellison's 'elite' competition team has worked extensively in defending corporate clients in complex civil and criminal investigations and court proceedings by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.

Our investigations work has included handling 'dawn raids' and mandatory requests for documents, information and to give evidence (section 155 notices) by the ACCC for a large range of corporate clients in the banking, media, retail and industrial sectors.

Our court defence work has included defending cases brought by the ACCC and corporate litigants alleging cartels, resale price maintenance, other anti-competitive conduct and consumer complaints.
