Economic Criminal Law

If you are accused, rightly or falsely, of fraud or some other economic offence, then you have a lot to deal with. Investigations by supervisory authorities such as the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets, the DNB, the Fiscal Intelligence and Investigation Service, the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, and Netherlands Authority for Consumers & Markets are increasingly common and specialised assistance is essential.
