Emmanuelle van den Broucke is a partner in Salans' Paris office. She specialises in competition and community law.

Since joining Salans, Emmanuelle has worked on numerous competition law issues: the analysis of merger, buy-out and joint venture agreements and, where necessary, notification to the French authorities and the European Comission. She assists and advises clients during proceedings for anti-competitive practices before the French Competition Authority and the French courts. She has also undertaken audits and helped several clients to put in place compliance programs. She has excellent knowledge of the pharmaceutical sector.

Emmanuelle has also developed thorough expertise in the French regulation of restrictive practices, advising clients on the negotiation and implementation of annual framework agreements and conditions of sale as well as on the compliance of their business practices with respect to the provisions of commercial law or specific regulations on certain products. She is regularly consulted in the setting-up of distribution agreements and assisting clients during their termination and with any subsequent litigation that may arise.

Emmanuelle is a member of the French Association of Lawyers in Competition Practice; she regularly publishes articles on competition law and is the editor of a monthly newsletter on competition issues.
