Competition law protects fair competition between companies. If a competitor violates competition law, for example through misleading advertising, unfair business practices or failure to provide information, a warning letter may be sent to the competitor and an injunction demanded.
An infringement of competition law should never be left to rest. This will weaken your own market position and you will lose customers.
One advantage of a warning letter is that the infringer has to bear the costs of legal action. This means that he must reimburse you for the legal costs of the warning letter if he recognises the infringement or if he loses the case.
Nor should a warning letter under competition law be ignored. Otherwise, the party issuing the warning may take legal action and obtain an injunction or file a lawsuit. This can lead to high costs and legal disadvantages.
