Compliance structures for companies as the key to risk minimisation

A complex legal framework for participation in commercial transactions

The rules for companies and their bodies when participating in economic transactions are as numerous as they are complex. This is intensified by endeavours at European level to create a uniform legal basis for commercial transactions. If a company violates such rules, this often leads to severe fines as well as further economic damage. This can often result in a loss of public reputation. In addition, it is always necessary to consider criminal investigations both against the company itself and against the bodies involved.

We support you both preventively in setting up or optimising compliance structures and in the context of ongoing investigations and court proceedings.

By involving our experts from the core competence area of commercial criminal law, we develop interdisciplinary strategies for your defence in all relevant aspects.

We also support you in communicating professionally with all parties involved.

We have already demonstrated our expertise in some of the most highly regarded proceedings in the history of German commercial criminal law.
