Business activities and liability risks
Business activities require complex risk assessments and decisions. Exercising business judgement carries liability risks – possibly also under criminal or regulatory law.
Increased regulation of business activities means more and more liability risks.
Based on our expertise and decades of experience, we support clients to identify and avoid such risks: from establishing effective compliance concepts, to conducting and coordinating internal investigations, to guiding clients through all stages of criminal/regulatory proceedings, including appeals, and constitutional matters.
-
Criminal proceedings
Even a low-level suspicion of misconduct relevant under criminal or regulatory law can lead to the initiation of preliminary proceedings. This situation places a heavy burden on individuals and companies. It triggers uncertainty and fears, and a definite need for action.
We are familiar with this situation, we take it seriously and guide clients – individuals as well as corporate entities – through the process. We always keep an eye on possible secondary consequences, such as reputation damage or regulatory issues.
We ask the relevant questions and provide clear answers, recommendations and risk assessments.
-
Dynamic processes
Criminal proceedings are not rigid situations, but rather evolving processes that can be shaped. Their development is just as dependent on the parties involved as it is on ever-changing findings, assessments and evaluations.
We are aware of these dynamics, we are able to react flexibly, and we can shift our approach if the situation requires it in the interests of our clients.
The basis of sound legal advice and defence is profound expertise, including the ability to recognise where our own expertise reaches its limits and where specialised knowledge from other legal and professional fields should be included.
-
Individual and personal
Every client and every case is different. We do not offer "one-size-fits-all" solutions, but rather customised advice and defence adapted to the respective individual needs and circumstances of our clients, from the composition of the team to the development and implementation of our strategies.
