3D Legal – Dandria Studio Legale is at the forefront of Italian legal practice in antitrust and regulation, providing exceptional legal services through an integrated approach that combines deep expertise with practical business solutions.

Our practical approach focuses on finding workable solutions that protect our clients' interests while ensuring regulatory compliance. Our team of recognised experts provides clear, actionable and cost-effective solutions that address our clients' most challenging legal issues while supporting their business objectives.

Our experience in competition law covers the full spectrum of antitrust matters, including cartel investigations, abuse of dominance cases, merger control and State aid. We guide clients through proceedings before the Italian Competition Authority (AGCM), the European Commission, and national and EU courts, consistently achieving favourable outcomes through strategic defence strategies, commitment procedures and leniency applications. Our practical approach has proven particularly effective in securing case closures and reducing fines. We assist clients during dawn raids and investigations, always seeking to provide practical solutions. In State aid matters, we help clients navigate both procedural and substantive aspects of EU regulations.

We provide comprehensive advisory services on consumer protection, AGCM's other key mandate. Our expertise covers unfair commercial practices, misleading advertising and unfair contractual terms. Our pragmatic approach often leads to the timely resolution of investigations through commitment procedures, helping clients avoid fines while implementing sustainable business solutions.

We have distinguished ourselves particularly in the private enforcement of cartel damage claims and other claims arising from regulatory breaches, representing both claimants and defendants in individual and collective actions (both follow-on and stand-alone).

Our integrated approach extends to compliance programmes, where we develop tailored frameworks aligned with each client's specific operational context and risk profile. These programmes incorporate preventive measures, training protocols, monitoring systems and robust whistleblowing mechanisms — essential tools for the early detection and management of potential violations.

We offer specialized advisory services in Regulated Sectors, including energy, telecommunications, banking and insurance.

Our areas of expertise in emerging regulatory fields include:

• Foreign Direct Investment (FDI): we navigate the complex screening mechanisms within both the Italian and EU frameworks
• Digital Law: we provide comprehensive guidance on the latest digital regulations, including the AI Act, the Digital Services Act (DSA) and the Digital Markets Act (DMA).
• AI Act: specialist advice on compliance with the EU Regulation on Artificial Intelligence, risk assessment of AI systems, classification of use cases and preparation of the required technical documentation and governance controls.
• White Collar Crime: assistance in corporate criminal matters, internal investigations, criminal compliance and relations with prosecuting authorities.

We also provide targeted guidance on unfair commercial practices in the agri-food supply chain to supermarkets, producers and suppliers.

Data protection represents another key component of our regulatory expertise. We assist clients in developing Data Protection compliance programmes, managing data breaches and handling relations with the Italian Data Protection Authority.
