Legal Representation, Consultation, and Conducting Court Proceedings
Economic criminal law

This field is closely related to business activities, and often there is suspicion that certain business practices exceed the boundaries set by the order of economic management, financial obligations, the framework of fair and legal economic management, and may violate the societal interest associated with their protection.

In such cases, reliable legal defense becomes essential. In this context, not only expertise in criminal law is necessary but also a specific practice in economic criminal law, confident knowledge of investigative authorities, prosecution procedures, and court proceedings, all of which you can rely on us for.

The characteristic of economic criminal offenses is that the Penal Code generally does not define the act directly but refers to a so-called framework rule that points to another underlying regulation (such as the accounting law or the VAT law), which specifically defines the content of the offending behavior - some breach of obligation. Therefore, proper legal defense also requires knowledge of these underlying regulations and tax procedures.
