In the area of corporate and white collar crime, we act for both businesses and individuals accused of wrong-doing, as well as for victims of unlawful conduct.
Our experts represent and defend clients in front of Criminal Courts, and in front of regulators and other law enforcement authorities, as well as in proceedings brought by private parties like companies, NGO and individuals. We also represent injured parties in criminal proceedings against perpetrators, enforce damages claims, and offer asset tracing and asset recovery.
We provide all-hours support for ‘dawn raids’ to ensure speedy legal assistance during unannounced investigations, as well as work with clients regarding filing criminal complaints or providing assistance for witnesses.
Furthermore, we regularly conduct internal investigations targeted at establishing the facts necessary to verify the suspicions and to secure evidence for possible use in court.
We help our clients identify and minimize risks while conducting these investigations, so they can protect their interests while also complying with the law. This can include organizing the review and analysis of electronic data, as well as interviewing employees and third parties.
Where such situations involve other complex areas of law – such as labor and employment, data protection, insolvency, antitrust, capital markets or tax – a wider group of experts from ADVANT member firms work together seamlessly to provide exactly the right advice and support for the client’s unique needs.
