The Netherlands is one of the most prominent European jurisdictions for private enforcement (cartels and abuse of dominance). Our Cartel Damages team, formed by competition law specialists and litigation specialists, acts at the highest level in this field. Based on the practical experience, questions are answered on various issues raised in cartel damages cases, including the legal and factual basis for the claims, the possibilities of bundling, evidence and legal presumptions, joint and several liability, and limitation.
