General EU law, free movement of goods, services and capital

We support clients with our highly specialised expertise in European regulatory law, and free movement of goods, services and capital through our expert team. We help companies protect their commercial interests across all areas of general EU law, including proceedings involving wider EU regulation, and the free movement of goods, services and/or capital principles. We are also experienced at successfully representing clients who are involved with complaints initiated by the EU Commission, and appearing before the EU Courts in Luxembourg, including for both infringement and preliminary ruling proceedings. 

We ensure our clients stay up to date with key EU law developments which are of particular relevance to their industry, with timely practical updates. We regularly engage, monitor and provide advice on the potential outcomes of pending legislative initiatives across a range of different areas and EU legislative processes, and map the resulting opportunities and risks for clients. We also successfully enable clients to positively engage directly with the relevant EU decision-making institutions and their members where appropriate.
