Defence & clarification – Extraordinary situations in the personal and business arena can entail a risk of conflict with the law. In this case, professional assistance is needed right from the start.

Being a defendant in preliminary proceedings is difficult to handle. Personal dismay, a lack of experience in dealing with law enforcement agencies and a desire to justify one’s actions can get in the way of, and even jeopardise, a successful legal defence. We specialise in law relating to economic offences, including voluntary reports in the case of tax offences to avoid penalties.

The increase in judicial enquiries in the corporate sector is the result of a call for transparent business management, to be achieved by a sustained persecutions of economic offences. Compliance, a term frequently heard in this context, largely describes organisational measures within a company to ensure that its boards and employees observe the rules and regulations. We provide advice and defend our clients in these difficult and sensitive areas.
