We live in transactional times where seeking a commercial edge through rapid digital communications and networking with clients and competitors alike can feel like a do or die approach to stay ahead of the curve.
But with this approach comes the commercial quandary at the heart of all competition law cases - was any information shared between the parties tantamount to a collusion to manipulate the market and distort fair competition at the expense of consumers?
How can companies therefore ensure that directors and employees alike do not over-step the fine line policed by the UK's Competition and Markets Authority - and the EU Commission pre-Brexit - without interfering with the smooth running of business operations?

The dawn raid is merely the execution of a court ordered search warrant.
It can be executed at home addresses or multiple places of business simultaneously.
Usually large quantities of documentation and data may be the subject of the search and ultimately seizure.
We can advise on the validity of the search, assist in the retention of material not included, protect items which are covered by legal professional privilege or seek copies of seized material.
We can advise on the options available to you and the next steps.

A fundamental tenet of our criminal justice system is that a suspect of a criminal offence has the right not to incriminate themselves and provide the investigators or prosecuting authorities with evidence against them.
Compliance with this request is not optional and failure to answer such questions or provide relevant documents is a criminal offence of itself.
The Insolvency Service has similar powers to compel officers or directors of companies to provide documents or submit for interview, where issues of bankruptcy, insolvent trading or acting in breach of the Company Directors Disqualification Act are alleged.
