In fact, he has provided legal and technical advice by drafting reports and representing clients before the Fiscalía Nacional Económica (FNE ' National Economic Prosecutor) and the Tribunal de Defensa de la Libre Competencia (TDLC - Antritust Tribunal) in cases related to mergers, cartels and abuses of dominant positions, combining the legal approach of such problems with the necessary underlying economic viewpoint.
