The focus of our criminal law advice lies in the areas of fraud and accounting offenses, financial criminal law, embezzlement, corruption and money laundering.
If a company is in crisis, the weeks before a decision is made as to whether the company can be continued without insolvency proceedings are precarious for its executive bodies, not only regarding liability and insolvency but more importantly regarding potential criminality of management’s acts and omissions. Preventive advice is of the essence.
Entrepreneurial activity is increasingly aligned with compliance regulations, and decision-makers in the company (such as board members, managing directors, and senior employees) are increasingly confronted with criminal law issues. They are subject to far-reaching supervisory and organisational duties; the risk of being charged is considerable.
We represent our clients in all criminal law matters before investigating authorities and courts, in an advisory capacity and also as defence counsel.
