PRACTICE AREAS

Our firm handles major conflicts primarily focused on the criminal area. It assists natural and legal persons in legal proceedings, police enquiries, defensive investigations, parliamentary commissions of enquiry, compliance, internal investigations and corporate and government crisis management, with the purpose of minimising reputational damage and the incidence of repressive sanctions in various spheres.

The great complexity of economic relations has also demanded special attentiveness within the processes of buying and selling companies, mergers and corporate reorganisations, as well as contracts with public authorities, always with an eye to preventing litigation and diluting criminal risk.
