We represent both subsidizing governments and affected parties in subsidy-related matters. Our expertise covers WTO-prohibited subsidies (i.e. export subsidies and subsidies contingent on local content), actionable subsidies causing adverse effects, and related trade measures. We help clients design compliant programs, defend subsidy programs, and challenge harmful subsidization.
Government support programs require careful design to comply with WTO rules. We help clients with:
Prohibited subsidies:
Actionable subsidies
Our experience includes representing both sides in subsidy disputes: governments maintaining support programs and parties affected by foreign subsidization. This dual perspective enhances our ability to develop effective strategies for each client's specific situation.
We combine technical expertise with practical experience from landmark subsidy cases before the WTO and national investigating authorities. Whether designing WTO-compliant support programs or challenging harmful subsidies, we deliver results-focused solutions.
