Craig Simpson’s Expertise Craig is a Brussels based UK qualified solicitor with over twenty years’ experience in private practice and the public sector advising clients in the life sciences sector on regulatory compliance of products marketed or produced in Europe (in the European Economic Area (‘EEA’) and the United Kingdom) and related commercial, contract, and competition matters. His practice focuses primarily on food and feed, chemicals and product safety issues. Craig has particular experience in food and feed regulation. He assists clients in identifying the regulatory status of food and feed products and their ingredients, product positioning, compliance of product promotional materials with food information requirements and in determining applicable hygiene and traceability obligations. He defends clients under enforcement investigation, including representing clients before national enforcement authorities in negotiating solutions to non-compliance situations. He also challenges unjustified national trade barriers hindering marketing of client food or feed products and represents clients before European institutions and in proceedings before European Courts and Boards of Appeal. Craig also has significant experience advising clients on market access and regulatory compliance matters concerning chemicals (REACH, Restriction of Hazardous Substances (‘RoHS’), Persistent Organic Pollutants (‘POPs’), Classification, Labelling and Packaging (‘CLP’)), medical devices, biocidal products and CE marking and on specific consumer protection and product safety requirements. Prior to joining Keller & Heckman, Craig worked for six years as a Senior Legal Officer in the Food and Veterinary Unit of the Internal Market Affairs Directorate at the European Free Trade Association (‘EFTA’) Surveillance Authority (‘ESA’) pursuing infringement proceedings against EEA EFTA State laws constituting illegal trade barriers and advising on regulatory compliance issues under the EEA Agreement. He also acted as the appointed Hearing Officer in competition proceedings issued by ESA. Before joining ESA, Craig practised as Of Counsel in the life sciences group of an international law firm for thirteen years advising and representing multinational companies and European trade associations on EU regulatory compliance issues in the food and feed, chemicals, medical devices, biocidal products and product safety areas. Craig regularly lectures at industry conferences and trade association events and authors articles on legal developments affecting the life sciences sector.
