White-Collar Crime

Any entrepreneur and officer can easily encounter white-collar crime in many ways through no fault of their own. We protect our clients' interests from providing a defense to investigating violations, and offer a comprehensive range of crisis response services.

When companies, employees, or managers encounter white-collar crime, a lot is on the line. Regardless of whether you are the victim or the accused, the stakes are high and the consequences can be serious – both in business and in your personal life. Wealth and reputation can be destroyed, and individuals may also be subject to sanctions.

We are there for both sides: Whether a manager has been accused of wrongdoing or a company has suffered losses due to criminal actions, we protect the rights of our clients. And the assistance we provide goes well beyond legal advice. Our experienced team is also familiar with the human side and advises clients in these extreme personal situations.

Managing Director Liability - Contracts Shortening the Statute of Limitations inadmissible

• White-Collar Crime from Christopher Schrank

According to the law, claims for compensation by the GmbH against "its" managing directors become time-barred within five years. In practice, however, shorter limitation periods are often agreed.
