White-collar crime proceedings
White-collar criminal proceedings often center on companies. Criminal investigations against employees may have serious implications for companies; their premises and IT systems can be searched, their business documents and data seized. Criminal justice institutions may confiscate a company's profits or impose substantial fines.
In white-collar criminal proceedings it is paramount that companies have an effective defence in place from the very beginning. In the event of a search and seizure, we can support you on-site. We can assist you in conducting an internal investigation to clarify the underlying facts. We can represent your company's interests and communicate with the law enforcement authorities. We seek to ensure that criminal proceedings are concluded in a swift, discreet and fair manner. We can represent you in defending and enforcing civil claims against third parties and insurance companies. We can provide advice on employment-law issues and assist you in improving your compliance management system.
We can draw on a wealth of experience in defending companies in complex white-collar criminal proceedings. Our cross-sector expertise in particular covers criminal matters involving the fields of tax, capital markets and anti-corruption law, as well as fraud and breach of trust. We would be glad to assist in your company's defence.
