Freehills CEO Gavin Bell said the firm had identified competition and market regulation as offering substantial opportunity for the firm, given some of the high-profile M&A deals that continue to face considerable scrutiny from the ACCC.

Freehills’ competition and market regulation team includes Paul Hughes, Chris Jose, Peter McDonald, Patrick Gay, Daniel Preston, Karen Gibbons, Michael Gray and Bob Baxt.
