Criminal tax law
Our expertise for your strategic operations
Tax audits that are increasingly frequent and increasingly strict, even in their cross-border aspects, combined with the development of mechanisms for cases to be sent directly to the French public prosecutor's office, changes to the investigative resources of tax authorities and an increased desire to combat tax and financial fraud, mean that people and companies are at an increased risk of undergoing an audit and criminal prosecution. The consequences can be serious, not merely on a financial level, but also in personal terms and for your reputation.
Preparing for and reacting to the risk of criminal charges
Criminal penalties are of a different nature and often have more serious consequences than purely fiscal measures: large fines, seizures, professional prohibitions and, in some cases, prison sentences. In this context, it is essential to be able to react quickly and to implement an appropriate legal strategy with regard to the instigating tax position or as part of the extension of the criminal proceedings. Our lawyers can defend you before criminal jurisdictions and assist you with the investigatory proceedings before a criminal trial.
It is also essential that you foresee the criminal risk in advance and that you integrate the criminal aspect in tax decision making.
