About Butelmann
We are an economic consulting firm serving law firms, private companies, and public institutions. We provide advisory services in competition law, regulatory analysis, and damages estimation for civil and arbitration litigation.
We are driven by rigor and staying at the forefront. Our daily challenge is to remain at the frontier of microeconomic knowledge, using quantitative tools that help us understand market dynamics, which change rapidly alongside new technologies.
