Economic Criminal Law

Economic criminal law

Are you investigated by supervisory or investigation bodies? Are you facing prosecution? Turn to GMWAdvocaten. We have extensive experience with all aspects covered by corporate criminal law and economic sanction law.

Entrepreneurs and managers in leading positions are perhaps unaware of how quickly one can be the subject of an investigation by supervisory bodies and enforcement authorities. Often criminal investigation and prosecution follow. During the last ten years the effects of the many EU Directives and Framework Decisions have penetrated all areas of corporate life. Consequently, national and European bodies receive increased competences to investigate cases where economic fraud is suspected. GMW Advocaten will render expert legal advice in all related cases.

Our role

GMW Advocaten will act quickly in order to limit the damages done to your reputation and the continuity of the day-to-day operations of your company. They will advise you on all aspects of damage control and on the best internal and external communication strategy. GMW Advocaten will first try to prevent prosecution by negotiating on your behalf the best possible out-of-court settlement with the Public Prosecution Service (OM) and other supervisory bodies. They will stand in court by you and for you, should this no longer be possible. Their in-depth knowledge of sanction law and administrative law will help keeping proceedings as short as possible.
