Defence from the first procedural steps
Early decisions may shape the entire criminal case. We assess the factual theory of suspicion or accusation, the legality of evidence collection, coercive measures and the actions that should be taken immediately.
The team’s professional background includes investigative, prosecutorial and defence work, allowing the matter to be assessed from more than one procedural perspective.
Financial, economic and corruption cases
Accounting, tax, movement of assets and funds, corporate activity, fraud, bribery, trading in influence and abuse of office.
Contraband and excise goods
Transport, possession and distribution chains, customs and excise information, electronic communications and financial evidence.
Narcotic and psychotropic substances
Composition and quantity, expert evidence, the individual’s role, communications, electronic evidence and legality of procedural actions.
Other criminal cases
Defence in investigations and at trial, searches, interviews, asset restraint, detention, expert evidence, appeals and cassation.
How we work
We identify the procedural position, immediate risks and steps that cannot be delayed.
We examine how evidence was obtained, what remains untested and what contradicts the authority’s theory.
We prepare submissions, attend procedural actions, challenge coercive measures and represent the client in court.
