Constitutional Litigation
Constitutional law lies at the heart of the legal order, governance, and the protection of fundamental rights in the European Union and its Member States, which is why constitutional questions arise in all areas of law.
Our Constitutional Litigation practice offers strategic advice, advocacy, and litigation services in cases involving the interpretation, application, and defence of constitutional principles and civil liberties across jurisdictions not only before EU courts but also before Member States’ courts all the way up to the national constitutional courts and supreme courts.
We represent individuals, companies, non-governmental organisations, and interest groups in a wide range of constitutional matters, including:
- Challenges to the validity of legislation, administrative acts, or regulatory measures.
- Defence of fundamental rights and freedoms, including freedom of expression, equality, property, and due process.
- Advice and litigation on the division of powers between national, regional, and local authorities.
- Legal advice and representation in constitutional referenda, electoral law, campaign finance, and other political law issues.
- Disputes arising from parliamentary committees of inquiry.
- Representation before constitutional courts and supreme courts in Member States.
- Constitutional aspects of international law and European Union law interactions.
- Strategic counselling on compliance with constitutional standards in legislative and regulatory drafting.
Our Constitutional Litigation practice combines deep expertise in constitutional theory with practical experience in high-stakes litigation and intimate knowledge of the political context in often sensitive cases.
