Dr. Marc Schweda

Recognizing the need for high level advice in a wider range of competition related issues, Marc has also focused on public procurement law and EU state aid law. It is there, at the interface between the different disciplines of competition law, where Marc is difficult to beat. 

Whether it is setting-up cooperation's and agreements in line with competition law requirements, helping clients involved in cartels to get off as lightly as possible, representing plaintiffs and defendants in court in antitrust litigation cases or maneuvering clients through the shallows of international merger control, numerous clients have already trusted in Marc's advice. 

Legal 500 says this is where Marc "develops tailor-made solutions". Marc also regularly advises on complex procurement law matters in public tenders and related court proceedings as well as on EU state aid law matters. He has particular experience in the energy and life sciences sectors.  Marc is co-author of two well-known German commentaries on German and EU competition law, the Langen/Bunte and the Lowenheim/Riesenkampf/Meessen. He also writes in the Heidenhain, EU State Aid Law Handbook and has led Hogan Lovells' German antitrust practice group since 2022.
